Eclipse FAQs
Where Can I Find More Information About Eclipse and Eclipse GlassFish Integration?
Eclipse is a development environment that provides a framework, tools,
and runtime for deploying and managing software. The GlassFish plugin
for Eclipse provides important changes to better support Eclipse GlassFish and to provide optimal redeployment of web applications. For more
information, see the GlassFish Plugins page:
http://glassfishplugins.java.net.
Extensibility FAQs
How Do I Develop Add-On Components?
See the Eclipse GlassFish Add-On Component Development Guide for complete details.
How Do I Add Containers?
Eclipse GlassFish has a highly modular architecture that enables you to add new types of containers that handle many application types, not just Jakarta EE. Eclipse GlassFish defines a service provider interface (SPI), which container developers implement. The Eclipse GlassFish framework then invokes the container’s implementation of the SPI to detect, deploy, and manage applications of the new type.
For more information, see "Adding Container Capabilities" in Eclipse GlassFish Add-On Component Development Guide.
How Do I Extend the Administration Console?
See "Extending the Administration Console" in Eclipse GlassFish Add-On Component Development Guide.
Java Persistence FAQs
What Are the Restrictions and Optimizations for the Java Persistence API?
See "Restrictions and Optimizations" in Eclipse GlassFish Application Development Guide.
Update Tool FAQs
How Do I Use Update Tool to Extend My Eclipse GlassFish Installation?
Enterprise Server provides an administrative tool called Update Tool that enables you to install updates and add-on components to your existing Enterprise Server installation.
Update Tool can be accessed as a standalone graphical tool from the
command line (using the updatetool command from
as-install-parent/bin), or as a browser-based graphical tool from the
Administration Console (using the Update Tool node). For more
information about Update Tool, see "Update Tool" in
Eclipse GlassFish Administration Guide.
|
To update or remove installed components, you must use the standalone graphical Update Tool, not the Administration Console Update Tool. |
A command-line interface is also available for Update Tool. This
interface uses the pkg command and enables you to perform most of the
tasks provided by the standalone graphical version. For more information
about the pkg command, see "Extending and Updating
Eclipse GlassFish" in Eclipse GlassFish
Administration Guide.

Update Tool differs from Upgrade Tool, which is used to migrate the configuration and deployed applications from an earlier version of Eclipse GlassFish to the current version. For more information about Upgrade Tool and upgrading, see the Eclipse GlassFish Upgrade Guide. |
