    Getting Started with RichFaces 4 on Eclipse

    undermanager

      Oh no, not another "Getting Started" document...

       

      I'm a part-time NetBeans and RichFaces user, wanting to try Eclipse.  The attached file (set_up_rf_for_eclipse.txt) documents in detail all the steps I took to create a new development environment for RF on Eclipse.

       

      Table of contents:

       

      1.   INSTALL JAVA

      2.   INSTALL GLASSFISH v3

      3.   INSTALL MAVEN

      4.   CONFIGURE MAVEN FOR THE JBOSS REPOSITORY

      5.   INSTALL ECLIPSE & JBOSS TOOLS

      6.   IMPORT THE RICHFACES PROJECT INTO ECLIPSE

      7.   CONFIGURE THE GLASFISH RUNTIME IN ECLIPSE

      8.   CONFIGURE THE JSF PROJECT FACET

      9.   RUN THE WEB APPLICATION

       

      QUESTION: It would be great to know, from the community, what extra or different steps you typically take to set up your RF development environment on Eclipse.  What do you do to maximize productivity, minimize annoyances, and so on?

       

      Apologies if that is off-topic or too vague.  I'm an Eclipse newbie.
