Eclipse and JSP

If it wasn’t already, Eclipse is now solidified as my IDE of choice. I think I said this all before, but this time I really mean it. Today’s renewed excitement is a result of proper JSP support within Eclipse, using the Lomboz plugin.

Of course, neither Lomboz nor the latest version of the Eclipse-EMF plugin are in the Gentoo Portage tree. But, being the crafty guy that I am, I created ebuilds for them. I also created an ebuild for the Sysdeo plugin which provides Tomcat integration for Eclipse. You can find all three ebuilds as attachments to bugs in the Gentoo bug tracker. If you’re not a Gentoo user and are having trouble setting it up, feel free to email me.

   Hi, Used your ebuilds for lomboz. I was wondering whether you got it to work with tomcat5 deployment and if so how. I tried with the portage-installed version of tomcat but that has permission and class-path issues. Grtz Ramon
