Hi,

I’ve found posts from May 2003 that said MyEclipse would support importing EAR, WAR files in July of 2003.

I cannot find an import function for this in 3.8.2
Am I missing something or did this feature ever get implemented?

In reality, I don’t care about the wizard so much. I want to run either of the Sun BluePrints J2EE demos inside Eclipse. That would be Petstore or Adventure Builder.

I’ve found a lot of people asking for this in various newsgroups and forums, but no one ever got an answer.

Here’s a post from Sept. 2003 to the Eclipse mailing list, and it mirrors my sentiments exactly.

Thanks in advance, Ed.

“I am trying to setup J2EE Pet store project source in Eclipse IDE as a
project use Eclipse to compile the classes rather than running the build
script given with the download.

Did anybody setup petstore project in Eclipse IDE before, if so can you
please help me set it up?

thanks in advance, Sunny V”

edwardotis,
There is no direct import feature for moving these projects directly into Eclipse or MyEclipse. I think the best way to start is to determine the components of the project you are trying to pull into ME. Are there EJBs? Is there a Web application portion? If so you will likely want to create 1 Web Project and 1 EJB Project, then 1 master EAR PRoject that uses the two previous projects as modules. Then you only have to worry about deploying the EAR Project and it will packaged everything nice and tidy for you and deploy it.

I would encourage you to get started by reading our quickstart guides to see how things work in ME: http://www.myeclipseide.com/ContentExpress-display-ceid-67.html
