JBoss IDE
•JBoss IDE is a plug-in used by Eclipse to
develop J2EE applications.
•J2EE applications are very large and consists
of large number of programs distributed
across directories.
•In order to organize these files, J2EE has lots
of configuration files.
•When we write J2EE programs ourself, then
we have to write all these configuration files.
•JBoss IDE helps in writing and maintaining
this configuration files for the programmer.

JBoss IDE Features
•Wizards to ease and simplify J2EE
development.
•Integrated debugging, monitoring, and life
cycle control of JBoss servers.
•JSP, HTML, and XML editors with syntax
highlighting
•Easy configuration and deployment of
package services
•Automatically create JAR, EAR and WAR files.
•Well integrated with Eclipse 3.1
•Open source software (freely available).

XDoclet
•When we develop J2EE applications, for each
component (EJB), there need to be several
support classes.
•These classes acts as interface for the users.
•XDoclet provides features write these
component classes when a bean is created.
•XDoclet is an open source intiative.
•JBossIDE uses XDoclet feature to create
support classes for beans.

JBoss Server
•We will deploy our application using JBoss
Server.
•JBoss server has two components:
– JBoss Application Server
•Which handles EJBs
– Tomcat Web Server
•Which handles servlets and JSP pages.
•But we get an integrated view and need not
worry about where Apache is running or
JBoss is running.

– Enterprise wide Java Applications
– Web applications
– Portals
•JBoss Application server supports EJB 3.0
