How do I run esb-console in GWT hosted-mode

There are two goals in the pom.xml, which triggers the hosted mode.

The following lists the complete list of the current esb-console/console/pom.xml maven project goals:

• mergewebxml
• i18n
• compile
• debug
• gwt
• test

The section of interest in the maven project esb-console/console/pom.xml is listed below:

    <!-- plugin goals -->
    <goals>                                                     
      <goal>mergewebxml</goal>
      <!--goal>i18n</goal-->
      <goal>compile</goal>
      <!--goal>debug</goal-->
      <!--goal>gwt</goal-->
      <!--goal>test</goal-->
    </goals>

Run in GWT hosted mode

If you want to just Run in GWT hosted mode, then uncomment the goal called gwt in the esb-console/console/pom.xml as shown below:

    <!-- plugin goals -->
    <goals>
        <goal>mergewebxml</goal>
        <!--goal>i18n</goal-->
        <goal>compile</goal>
        <!--goal>debug</goal-->
        <goal>gwt</goal>
        <!--goal>test</goal-->
    </goals>

Debug in GWT hosted mode

If you want to just Debug in GWT hosted mode, then uncomment the goal debug in the esb-console/console/pom.xml as shown below:

    <!-- plugin goals -->
    <goals>
      <goal>mergewebxml</goal>
      <!--goal>i18n</goal-->
      <goal>compile</goal>
      <goal>debug</goal>
      <!--goal>gwt</goal-->
      <!--goal>test</goal-->
    </goals>

Note that the GWT Hosted mode debug port is set to 8000 in the esb-console/console/pom.xml.

    <properties>
        <gwtVersion>1.5.2</gwtVersion>
        <debugPort>8000</debugPort>
        <glassfish.home>C:/JavaCAPS6/appserver</glassfish.home>
    </properties>

If you want to change the GWT debug port, make the change in the esb-console/console/pom.xml. You can now set breakpoints in your GWT code and debug the esb-console client code in GWT hosted mode.

Then run

mvn clean install

Go to your IDE, and debug remotely by connecting to the debug port set in the esb-console/console/pom.xml.

This will open the GWT Host in Suspended mode. You should now be able to set breakpoints in your GWT code and debug your plugin application.

Note: While debugging, GWT Hosted Mode runs its own embedded Tomcat with the web app root at esb-console/console/target/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/
