Eclipse + Tomcat如何让服务器保持运行

Question

I'm developing a SOAP client and server and I was trying to use the same eclipse instance for both sides. The two projects are on separate workspaces so I need to switch between them often. Can I deploy the server side to my Tomcat THEN switch to the client side workspace without Eclipse stopping Tomcat? Or do I need to start Tomcat manually and deploy a war?

Answer 1

Obviously you can start Tomcat manually and deploy the war. The other way try to import the client application project to your other workspace. File->Import->General->Existing project into workspace

Answer 2

Option 1:- Create tomcat instance in your server/ local machine and deploy war file in tomcat instance and start the tomcat.

Option 2:- Import both project in same workspace , and run in two instances of tomcat by creating 2 instance of tomcat in eclipse, make sure to change the port configuration in each instance
