If you need some examples of using facets, runtimes, servers etc.. take a look at the Geronimo Eclipse Plugin. I'll be glad to point you any examples from there. I'm not too familiar with the openejb side, but pretty familiar with Eclipse and WTP side of things. So let me know!

thx

David,
   There are two approaches to this:

The quick way: Take the existing WebLogic plugin and porting it to OpenEJB.
The right way: Writing from scratch as WebTools extension

My suggestion is to do this properly and start with a fresh slate. We can take some of the goodies from my plugin when necessary but from reading the documentation on WTP, I don't see there being too much to getting something working quickly. I also haven't really scoped a WebLogic to OpenEJB plugin port so it could end up taking more time than it would to do it right. I
hope to have a skeleton project in svn by the end of the week.

Take care,

Jeremy

Big thumbs up for putting energy into jump-starting new exciting
initiatives!  Good stuff!

I volunteer to help! :)

I created a space for us in svn:

And threw up a basic page we can update/change however we like:

   http://cwiki.apache.org/OPENEJB/eclipse-plugin.html

So any ideas on how to get some basic code in there asap.  I know you
did quite a bit of work on the weblogic eclipse plugin.  Is it
possible to throw that in there and just start changing it to be
OpenEJB specific, or am I dreaming? :)
