List members,

I am trying to add tooling support for Red5 which is an Flash Server.  In
particular, I'm trying to add Server runtime support to our application
server.  For a quick screencast of the functionality, please see here:
http://www.infrared5.com/2008-05-31_1618.swf

Here is some information about my plugin.  The Server runtime is configured
using the generic server definition which uses a server definition file and
an Ant build file.  I'm not sure if I've chosen the correct implementation.
I think that I might have been better off using a custom server runtime.
However I understand that it requires more effort which I'm willing to do if
I can't fulfill all of the plugin requirements.

Requirements:

   - deploy and run the application
   - debug the application (like Tomcat, etc...)
   - start and stop the server


What I have working currently:

   - deploy and run the application
   - start and stop the server


I have a few questions:


   1. Is this the correct list to post these questions to?
   2. Can a generic server have debug support, by clicking "debug on
   server"?
   3. The application server does have "Remote Java Application" debug
   support using jdwp.  Is this how the other server runtimes debug their
   applications (servers like tomcat, etc...)
   4. Where can I find the source for the Tomcat server plugin source code?
   I've seen the glassfish source, but haven't looked too much into it yet.
   5.  Is there any place where I can find more information on custom server
   runtime plugin development?  I've checked a lot of resources but it seems
   many just talk about the generic server definition support like I currently
   have.

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.  I look forward to
any tips/pointers etc.. that may help me add debugging support to my
plugin.
