Farhad Norouzi is a 4th year college student, studying Bachelor of Software Development (BSD) Program Seneca College in Toronto, Canada. He expects to graduate in May 2009.

He got admission from a major university in Canada to continue his education in the Master of Computer Science from September 2009. He plans to do his research and thesis on Enterprise Applications.

He was elected Financial Officer of the for the school year 2008-2009.

He has enrolled in the DPS909 - Topics in Open Source Development Course for the current semester (Winter 2009) where he hopes he will learn the technological, social, and pragmatic aspects of developing open source software through direct involvement in the Eclipse WTP.

DPS909 -- Open Source Development

Students and Professors at Seneca College work closely with open source communities like Mozilla, Fedora, OpenOffice.org, and Web Tools Platform (WTP) Project to do real-world research. Open Source@Seneca

Winter 2009 -- Eclipse WTP

Students get introduced to the technological, social, and pragmatic aspects of developing open source software through direct involvement in the Eclipse WTP project. Students will learn to use the tools, techniques, and strategies of open source developers.DPS909 Eclipse WTP Weekly Schedule

Major Project -- Eclipse WTP -- Bug 240167 -- Normal -- P3

Bug ID

240167

Bug Description

When the user deletes a Tomcat 5.5 server from the server view, the editor will not be closed.

Steps to Reproduce the Bug

1.I created a Tomcat 5.5 server, double click to open it in its editor.
2.Then I selected the server and deleted it from server view.
3.should the server editor be closed ?
4. if you have a java file open, and delete the file the editor is closed, otherwise it would be odd to make changes to the file.

Web Tools Platform (WTP) Tutorials -- Using Eclipse to Develop WTP

Foreword

This tutorial is prepared by Jordan Anastasiade, Seneca College - Computer Studies (S@Y) on October 10, 2008 by adaptation from Mark Hutchinson, IBM February 21, 2005/June 2, 2006.

Acknowledgments

I deeply appreciate the support we have received from IBM Lab Toronto, Special thanks to Mr. Angel Vera for his invaluable help.

Preface

This tutorial explains how one could set Eclipse environment to develop or modify the Web Tools Platform (WTP) project elements.

While the example presented is insignificant, the tutorial explores in details the steps for building the WTP development environment,thus being valuable to new developers and contributors to WTP project.

Introduction -- Necessary Elements to Set Eclipse WTP Development

Before one could start working with WTP project, the development and target platforms must be defined on hardware platform.

Following elements are necessary to set the Eclipse environment for the Web Tools Platform (WTP) Development process:

  • Download the development platform from Eclipse for RCP/Plug-in Developers. At the time of preparing this tutorial, the zip file is called eclipse-rcp-ganymede-SR1-win32.zip.
After downloading the zip file, define a working directory and unzip the downloaded file into that directory. For example, in this tutorial the development plug-in directory will be called <Eclipse_Base>.

Also, download the following files:

  1. Eclipse Platform (Platform, JDT) - file: eclipse-SDK-3.4.1-win32.zip
  2. EMF v2.5 Runtime Minimum executable code - file: emf-runtime-2.4.1.zip
  3. EMF XSD v2.5 Runtime Minimum executable code - file: xsd-runtime-2.4.1.zip
  4. Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) - file: GEF-SDK-3.4.1.zip
  5. Data Tools Platform (DTP) (required only for EJB or JPT development) - file: dtp-sdk_1.6.1.zip
  6. Very important file: the non-SDK package wtp


After downloading all those files, define a working directory for WTP and unzip the downloaded files into that directory (e.g. <IBM/WTP_Builds/3.0.3>).

Getting Started

Check out WTP Source Code in CVS Repository

Set up Target Platform

Modify WTP Source Code

Run Modified Eclipse Web Application With New Code

Create Patch With Source Code Changes - Submit Patch to WTP Project
