A connection profile contains the details needed to connect to a particular server. Eclipse STP currently supports connection to an Apache Tomcat container.

  1. Ensure that you are in the JAX-WS project that you want to deploy.
  2. Select File > New > Other ... > Connection Profiles > Connection Profile .
  3. In the New Connection Profile wizard, select Tomcat Connection Profile and click Next.
  4. Enter a unique name for the connection profile and a description, then click Next.
  5. Click Browse to locate your Tomcat installation.
  6. In the Summary panel, click Finish.
The new connection profile is added to the Data Source Explorer view.
