Hi,
I saw posts about installing ME4S and/or MyEclipse for Spring STS editon into SpringSource STS. Is this correct, so that I would have all 3 in one IDE?
Also, one shortcoming I saw looking at SpringSource STS is that I believe STS only allows deployment to their tc server (which is not free in production), not stand-alone Tomcat. Is it true that If I add ME4S and/or the STS edition into SpringSource STS I can then create applications that deploy to just Tomcat (not tc server)?
Thanks,
BrianHi Brian,
Unfortunately we are no longer offering new versions of our MyEclipse for Spring STS plugin version due to lack of interest from the STS development community. The plugins that are available are several versions old.
Even so, I believe the plugins only added the MyEclipse for Spring functionality that includes scaffolding from databases, JPA entities, etc. The plugins did not add the full MyEclipse Pro functionality.
That said, I believe you can deploy your applications to standard Tomcat from within STS. My STS version is 2.6, but I can create a new Server connector by:
1. Right-clicking in the whitespace of the open “Servers” view. (If it’s not open, use Window > Show View > Servers)
2. Select “New” on the context menu.
3. Expand the Apache node in the tree and select your Tomcat version.
4. Walk through the wizard and select the Tomcat installation directory. (Since tomcat is not bundled, you’ll have to have it downloaded separately and un-zipped on your machine)I do not use STS for development, but hopefully with the server connector created, the rest is painless. You may need to add some extra dependencies to your project or Tomcat installation that STS is bundling in their tc Server but other than that, I would think it would be fairly straightforward.
I hope this helps.
