Re: [opennms-devel] OpenNMS Web-App project in Eclipse

Thanks for your reply. 

Sure, I can use Jetty, no problem. So far, I learned that this is the URL to access the OpenNMS I built from the source: http://localhost:8980/opennms 

The other thing I learned is that if I would like to make any changes to the code, the root directory for OpenNMS jetty is here: 
/target/opennms-1.6.1/jetty-webapps/opennms

Now, I understand the next step for me would be creating a JAVA project using the existing ONMS project. I downloaded the opennms-1.6.1 source code (not the trunk, I got a tagged version) and built it to the target directory.

Today, I again followed the instruction of the first link:

- Opened Eclipse and created a new workspace
- Added M2_REPO classpath variable and set its value to the path of my repository directory

This is the step where it fails:

"Lastly go to File->Import... and select General->Existing
Projects into Workspace and set the root directory to ~/svn/eclipse.
This will show a list of projects that are available. Select them all
and click ok.
"

The problem is I don't see any available project listed inside the bottom window. Looks like Eclipse can not find any available project given that root directory (where both OpenNMS source code and the built files are).

I am sure I can manage to just change a file using a text editor and see the output, but that's not really my intention if it make sense. I would like to have a working workspace inside Eclipse...

Please help

Thanks in advance
