I assume you have installed the latest SUN/Oracle JDK 6, make sure the JAVA_HOME path variable is set properly and the JAVA_HOME/bin is added to the system path.
Download Eclipse 3.6 from . Choose Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers which provides excellent features for JEE development. You should also install the M2Eclipse plugin when you are using maven to build your application.
M2Eclipse update site: .
Download Apache Maven from . I select the 2.2.1 version for this tutorial. Unzip the archive to your disk, and set M2_HOME path variable to the uncompressed folder, and add M2_HOME/bin to your system path.
Execute “mvn -version” in your cmd console to verify Apache Maven has been installed properly.
Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-07 03:16:01+0800)
Java version: 1.6.0_23
Java home: D:\jdk6\jre
Default locale: zh_CN, platform encoding: GBK
OS name: "windows 7" version: "6.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows"
Download Glassfish v3 from http://glassfish.dev.java.net. Glassfish distribution is available in OS dependent installer and cross platform archive format, I select the cross platform archive, it can be used in all operation system, not only for Windows system. Unzip it to your disk.
Open Eclipse IDE, and open “Servers” view (Click Windows->Show View->Others, input “server” to filter results tree, and select “Servers” ).
Right click in the white space in the Servers view, select “New”->”Server” in the context menu and open “Define New Server” dialog.
If you can not find the Glassfish options in the list, I think you should install the Glassfish server adapters firstly. There are two approaches to accomplish this work.
Click the “Download additional server adapters” link in the dialog to download the Glassfish server adapters.
Install it from Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse, the update site url is .
Click “Next” button and click “Browse” button to choose the Glassfish server folder.
Click “Finish” button to close the wizard dialog, you will see a Glassflass node in the Servers view.
2. Create application
Execute the following command line in the system console.
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeRepository=
Input the number of webapp-javaee6 :
...
256: remote -> webapp-javaee6 (Archetype for a web application using Java EE 6.)
...
Choose a number: 101:
Here the number is 256, maybe it is a different number in your system.
Input the number and hint Enter key, it will provide prompt for the necessary attributes, answer one by one, and you will see the application is being generated by Maven.
Choose a number: 101: 256
Choose version:
1: 1.0
2: 1.0.1
3: 1.0.2
4: 1.1
5: 1.2
6: 1.3
Choose a number: 6:

If you are the first time to use Maven in your system, it will take several minutes to fetch essential dependencies from Apache Maven central repository.
Open Eclipse IDE, and import the application into Eclipse workspace. Click “File”->”Import...” in the Eclipse menu bar and open the Eclipse import project dialog. Select “Maven” in the tree list and expand the tree and select “Existing Maven Project”, click “Next” button.
In the next step in the wizard, click “Browse” button to select the project folder and click “Finish” to import the project codes into the Eclipse workspace.
When
it is ready, switch Eclipse to “Java EE perspective”, it is
friendly to develop a JEE application.
In this tutorial, I do not want to make thing complex, I will create a Session Bean and a JSF ManagedBean and JSF Facelet XHTML. I will improve the application in the further post.
Open “New” in the File menu, and open New File dialog, select “EJB”->”Stateless Session Bean 3.x”, and click “Next”, input the class name “HelloBean”, click “Finish” button.
@Stateless
@LocalBean
public class HelloBean {
/**
* Default constructor.
*/
public HelloBean() {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}
public String sayHello(String from) {
return ("Say Hello to JEE6 from " + from + " at " + new Date());
}
}
There I added a sayHello method in this Session Bean. It is a none-interface local bean which is a new feature introduced in EJB 3.1
Create a Class named “Helloworld”, added ManagedBean and RequestScoped annotations to the class.
@ManagedBean(name="helloworld")
@RequestScoped
public class HelloWorld {
@EJB
HelloBean bean;
public String sayHello() {
return bean.sayHello("hantsy");
}
}
In a JEE6 web application, JSF2.0 is ready for use, there is no need extra configuration for JSF2, you also does not need a web.xml for the web application.
Create a XHTML page using Eclispe wizard.
DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "">
<html xmlns=""
xmlns:ui=""
xmlns:h=""
xmlns:f="">
JEE6 Web Appliation: #{helloworld.sayHello()}
html>
We have defined a ManagedBean named “helloworld”, here it can be called via expression language in the web pages.
Now you can run the application on Glassfish application server. Right click the project node in the Project perspective. Select “Run as”-> “Run on Server”, select the configured Glassfish instance.
It will start the Glassfish server if the Glassfish is stopped.
Go to , you will get the result page like the following.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to create a simple maven based JEE6 web application with Eclipse, and how to run the application on the Glassfish application server.
