Chapter 9Using JBuilder with JBoss servers
This chapter explains how set up and use the JBoss application server with JBuilder.
JBuilder officially supports JBoss 3.2.5 and JBoss 3.0.8.
Configuring JBuilder for the JBoss application server
To configure JBuilder settings to target JBoss servers,
1 Choose Enterprise|Configure Servers.
The Configure Servers dialog box appears.
2 Select the JBoss 3.x+ server by clicking it in the pane on the left.
The right side of the dialog box lists the default settings for the selected server. The
General page has fields that all servers have in common, while the Custom page
has fields that are specific to the selected server. In some cases, modifying a
Custom setting will update a setting on the General page.
3 Check the Enable Server check box at the top of the dialog box.
Checking this option enables the fields for the selected application server. You wont
be able to edit any fields until it is checked. The Enable Server check box also
determines whether this server will appear in the list of servers when you select a
server for your project using the Servers page of the Project|Project Properties
dialog box.
JBuilder provides default settings for the selected server. If JBuilders default
settings are not appropriate, edit any of the settings as needed. Some servers
require you to enter settings in addition to the defaults. Clicking the OK button in this
dialog box when not all required values are set or selecting another server while the
current one is enabled displays a message dialog box that informs you about the
missing settings.
4 If you want to change any of the settings, click the ellipsis () button next to the field
and make your changes. If you installed JBoss into
[drive]:/jboss325, for example,
the default Home Directory would be
[drive]:/jboss325/jboss-3.2.5.
