Chapter 8. Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio
Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio is the JBoss Integrated Development Environment (IDE) based on Eclipse. Get the latest JBoss Developer Studio from the Red Hat customer support portal at https://access.redhat.com. JBoss Developer Studio provides plug-ins with tools and interfaces for Red Hat JBoss BRMS and Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite. These plugins are based on the community version of these products. So, the JBoss BRMS plug-in is called the Drools plug-in and the JBoss BPM Suite plug-in is called the jBPM plug-in.
Refer to the Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio documentation for installation and set-up instructions.
Warning
Due to an issue in the way multi-byte rule names are handled, you must ensure that the instance of JBoss Developer Studio is started with the file encoding set to
UTF-8. You can do this by editing the $JBDS_HOME/studio/jbdevstudio.ini file and adding the following property: "-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"
8.1. JBoss Central
When JBoss Developer Studio 8.0 is first started, JBoss Central is displayed in the main window of the workbench. From JBoss Central it is possible to create new projects by selecting the menu options under Start from scratch. Example projects can be started by selecting the links under Start from a sample.
Note
Due to issues in GWT3, JBDS should be configured to not use it. You can do this by setting the system property to 0:
# Don't use GTK 3 export SWT_GTK3=0
