To display the Configure Servers dialog box, choose Tools|Configure Servers. You can also display it by selecting the ... buttons next to the server names on the Server page of the Project|Project Properties dialog box.
Use this dialog box to configure the settings for the servers you want to develop your web and EJB applications.
The pane on the left side of the dialog box lists all the servers for which JBuilder finds a registered OpenTool when it starts up.
Servers that appear in dark type are those that already configured. Servers that appear in lighter gray type are those that have not yet been configured. Those that appear in red indicate an error; usually it means the server's library has been read, but the server plugin itself can't be found. (Each server that JBuilder supports has its own plugin that "plugs in" to the JBuilder architecture.)
To begin configuring a server, select the server you want to configure in this pane.
To remove a listed server from the left pane, select it and then click the Delete button. You will only be able to delete servers that appear in red and are therefore not valid.
Check the Enable Server check box to enable the server selected in the left pane. You must check Enable Server to make changes to the server settings. When this option is checked, the fields on the General and Custom pages become editable. Disabling a server is useful if you don't want to see it in the various selection lists. Only enabled servers appear on the Server page of the Project|Project Properties dialog box.
When you edit server settings and then click OK to close the dialog box, JBuilder attempts to validate the settings. If the validation fails, a message box appears informing you of the problem. You can prevent the validation attempt from occurring after you've made your edits if you uncheck Enable Server before clicking the OK button. You must check the Enable Server check box, however, before you can select the server your are configuring for use in a project.
The General page contains fields that are common to all servers.
The directory where the application server you are configuring is installed.
The class that is executed when the server is run. For servers that use a non-Java executable, this field won't appear.
The native executable used to run this server.
The parameters you want to pass to the virtual machine.
The parameters you want to pass to the server.
The name and location of a working directory.
The Class page lists the class files required by the server.
The Source page lists source files.
The Documentation page lists documentation files.
The Required Libraries page lists the libraries the server requires.
To add a directory to a Class, Source, or Documentation page, click the tab of the page to select it and click Add and the Select One Or More Directories dialog box appears.
When the Required Libraries page is selected, the Add button displays the Select One Or More Libraries dialog box.
Use the Edit button to edit a selected directory on the Class, Source, or Documentation page.
Use the Remove button to delete the selected item on the Class, Source, Documentation, or Required Libraries page.
Moves a selected item on the Class, Source, Documentation, or Required Libraries page up in the list of items.
Moves a selected item on the Class, Source, Documentation, or Required Libraries page down in the list of items.
Resets the settings in the dialog box to the original settings that are available when JBuilder is installed. JBuilder fills in the fields with default settings. To return to these settings any time, click the Reset To Defaults button. Clicking this button unchecks the Enable Server check box.
The Custom page contains fields that are unique to each server, although most servers require that you specify a JDK for the server to use.
The directory where the JDK the server uses is installed. Usually this is in the jdk
directory in the directory where you installed the server.
The name of the server.
The name of the partition.
If you want the Borland Management Agent to appear as an item on the Tools menu in JBuilder, check this option.
If you want the SonicMQ Broker to appear as an item on the Tools menu in JBuilder, check this option.
The realm of the server.
The user name to log in to the server.
The password to log in to the server.
For more information about these fields and the type of information you should enter, see the Borland Enterprise Server documentation.
The directory where the JDK the Borland AppServer 4.5 uses is installed. For more information about the JDK used, see the Borland AppServer documentation.
The directory where the JDK the WebLogic Server 5.1 uses is installed. For more information about the JDK used, see your WebLogic documentation.
Check this check box if you want to use an external compiler to generate stub files instead of the EJBC compiler.
Specify the fully-qualified name of the compiler you want to use. You use the ... button to navigate to the compiler location.
For more information about these options, see your WebLogic documentation.
The directory where the JDK the server uses is installed. The default JDK directory for WebLogic 6.0 is <bea home>jdk130
. For WebLogic 6.x, the default JDK directory is <bea home>jdk131
. For WebLogic 7.0, the default JDK directory is <bea home>jdk131_02
.
The BEA home directory used by the server.
The domain directory used by the server. This field is required for WebLogic Server 7.0 and is disabled for all other versions of WebLogic Server
The user name to log in to the server.
The password to log in to the server.
The name of the domain.
The name of the server.
The WebLogic 6.x+ version you are configuring. Use the drop-down list to select the version. This drop-down list is automatically filled in what you enter a valid BEA home directory.
Check this check box if you want to use an external compiler to generate stub files instead of the EJBC compiler.
Specify the fully-qualified name of the compiler you want to use. You use the ... button to navigate to the compiler location.
For more specific information about the type of information these fields require, see your WebLogic documentation.
The directory where the IBM JDK used by the server is installed.
The directory where the files for DB2 are installed.
