Creating a connection profile

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

To create a connection profile:

  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 Tomcat connection profile is stored in your workspace and is available to you when you deploy the service.
