Deploy alfresco extension from eclipse IDE

[aitbenmouh]

Someone can help me to deploy all the SDK project into Alfresco instance installed in local ? i executed the buid.xml and succeful but nothing changes in my running instance !

Can you give me all the configurations needed to deploy from eclipse without puting files manualy into alfresco directory ?

Each sample project in the SDK is different. In some cases the project is meant to run an in-process repository, not deploy code to a separate Tomcat. In some cases the project needs to know where your Alfresco WAR is so it can place the packaged JAR and other files in the WAR or in the expanded web application file structure. You should be able to look at the build.xml file and the readme.txt file (when it exists) to figure out how it is supposed to work for that particular example.

The SDK Basic AMP example is probably closest to what you are looking for. It is a sample project showing how to package up an AMP file, which you can then use to apply to the Alfresco WAR using the apply_amps.sh script.

In all cases, files are going to get placed in your Alfresco web application. AMPs are the preferred way of doing that because it is relatively clean, safe, and repeatable.
