Hi all I am new to J2EE development and I am developing a web application using the following configuration.
Web server - IIS Servlet engine - ServletExec 5.0 MVC framework - Struts 2.0.6 Java - 1.4.2_13 I am not using Tomcat because ServletExec is already available in my company and I am supposed to use that. I am using struts 2.0.6 because it is compatible ServletExec 5.0 and not with struts 1.3.5. I am using Java 1.4.2 because it is used for all other application in my company and so I am using the alternative Java 4 compatible JARs of struts 2.0.6. Now I am looking for IDE that would make my work easier. I tried Lomboz but had few problems in setting it up and its free user forum is very inactive, so couldn't get any help. So I have decided to quit using it and look for other alternative. Please let me know of any Eclipse plugin and any detailed tutorial to set up the web application of the configuration I mentioned above. I suppose Eclipse does not support the run-time which I am using (ServletExec). Is there a way setting up a generic runtime, rather than those predefined ones in Eclipse? Or currently runtime's integration with the IDE is not really important to me, as I can test the application in the browser. I don't want to use MyEclipse too as my company won't be paying for it. Please suggest me a free IDE (mostly Eclipse plugin), for developing struts-enabled web application. (if possible supporting my run-time too) I would highly appreciate your help.
