[Java] Coding java (jsr168) portlets with Eclipse

On my third and last day at the Vignette Application Portal coding course, and I'm glad I sat down last week to really learn the coding IDE Eclipse and the Lomboz plug-in.

I can now code jsr168 portlets with full intellisense/code completion in Eclipse, package and hot deploy it in weblogic - really, really nice. Once you got the environment set up, coding java portlets isn't too bad. Pity it takes ages to learn and set up the environment, and all hell breaks loose if you get a stacktrace :/

I still have to learn how to start weblogic in debug mode inside Eclipse so that I can debug the portlets. Not sure it will work at all actually...

EDIT: I had spelled Lomboz wrong, sorry bout that :)
