Eclipse PDT setup

Hi to all,

I was trying out the Eclipse PDT IDE and I'm impressed. I just want to
know about the development logic you are using with this IDE.

For example, I installed AppDev and configured Eclipse to use it's www
folder as workspace.

Now I want to define various virtual hosts on my PC for testing the code
inside AppDev. The idea is to call Firefox (or any other browser I like)
with the correct virtual host URL straight from Eclipse.

For example, I have eclipse project1 inside www/project1 and project2
inside www/project2 directory, and would like to call FireFox with URL
http://project1/ for project1 and http://project2/ for project2 testing.

(project1 and project2 are valid virtual hosts defined on my PC)

I've found PHP server settings for projects, and also Window>Web browser
so I guess my idea can be accomplished.

I was always near, but never achieved exactly what I wanted as described
above so I hope someone could help me with few tips.

Cheers.

I think you just kissed goodbye to any help in this forum. Good luck getting
help somewhere else.

Could someone explaine me too what did he do wrong in his first post? (it's
obvious about the second :)

Try to figure out what he's asking about... besides accessing local web
server with browser. But that's really not this group.

Nothing, except that this is not the right newsgroup for his problem.
Better would be <news:eclipse.tools.pdt> or a more generic Eclipse
group. Using their newsserver requires a registration, but it's free.

Even the second one was an appropriate answer to Twayne's completely
unnecessary content-less sig-only fullquote.

OT, so Fup2 poster

He didn't ask an explicit question, but the current situation and what
he would like to do was described good enough. It was just the wrong NG.

"I've these two machines and there's php and browsers on them. It's not
working. Can you tell me what's wrong?"

You're probably right and it was less than diplomatic, but there was
definitely and element of tit for tat involved.
