Anybody won't to take a shoot at this? Dwayne Ghant wrote:
Intresting question associated with this subject. If I have "public_html " enabled for developers on local machine ex: <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.startup.UserConfig" directoryName="public_html" userClass="org.apache.catalina.startup.PasswdUserDatabase"/>
Can I have a setting for tomcat to unwar there personal test applications in
there public_html directories????
I'm assuming it would look something like this (listed below):
<Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="/home/*/public_html" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"> </Host>
I'm probably incorrect, but I do need to know, to finish setting up JSP enviornment for
java developers like myself.

It's actually very easy to do what you want to do.
Assuming you have correctly installed and configured Sysdeo, you will need
to tell Eclipse where the War file for your Tomcat project should be
generated. This is done on a *project* basis, i.e. you have to repeat this
step once for each Tomcat project you create but you will never have to do
this again for a given project unless you change the location where you want
the War file.
1. Select the Tomcat project in the Package Explorer perspective.
2. Right click for a context menu. Choose 'Properties'.
3. Within Properties, choose 'Tomcat' from the tree on the left.
4. Click on the 'Export to WAR settings' tab within the Tomcat properties.
5. Enter the path that tells Tomcat where to generate your War file. The
path name should include the file name of the War file. I normally put my
War files in a folder called 'war' directly beneath the project so my "WAR
file for export" looks like this:
D:\eclipse\workspace\MyProject\war\MyProject.war. Naturally, you are free to
organize your files differently.
6. Click on OK to close the Properties dialog.
Then, every time you want to regenerate your War file, all you need to do is
this:
1. Select the Tomcat project in the Package Explorer perspective.
2. Right-click for a context menu. Choose 'Tomcat project'.
3. Choose 'Export to the war file sets in project properties'.
4. You should get a brief message that tells you the operation worked.
Now, if you don't find Tomcat in the Properties tree or if you don't see the
'Tomcat project' option in the context menu, it means you probably didn't
configure Sysdeo correctly. Don't worry, it's not that hard to fix. Just let
us know and we'll try to help.

Subject: WAR files and Eclipse
Hello All,
I am new to WAR files and eclipse. Many searches on google bring me to the
sysdeo tomcat plugin, which I have installed. I want to know if there is
some standard way to generate a WAR file for deployment. I have found that
I can export a JAR file and change its name, but in the process the
directory structure is altered. Maybe you even know about a better IDE than
eclipse for working with web-based projects. THANKS in advance.
Daniel
