- Richtclick on the pubman_ear project
- Go to Run As->Maven Build
- A dialog box appears, where you enter clean install jboss:harddeploy as goals
- Apply, run
- The next time you select Run As->Maven Build the saved run will be processed
Importing the projects[edit]
To import all the submodules of a project, do the following:
- Go to Files->Import...
- Choose General->Maven projects
- Now choose the root of your projects folder (it's the one with a pom.xml and the submodule folders)
- Check every project and import all the modules
You will get a parent eclipse project with all submodules and eclipse projects of all the submodules.
Attention, at the moment, the subversion plugin only works from the parent eclipse project.
Define the JBoss instance[edit]
For local testing a JBoss server can be used to deploy the project artifact. To define a JBoss instance in eclipse, do the following:
- Go to Window->Preferences...
- Choose Server->Installed Runtimes->Add...
- Choose a JBoss Version (normally 4.2) and add the path to your JBoss installation. Remember, use the server in jboss/server_eclipse!
- Now open a server view and righclick in it
- With New->Server you can add your created server runtime
- On some slow windows machines ;), you have to increase the waiting time for jboss to come up. Do this on tab Servers. Click on runtime, then Open->Timeouts
