2. Right-click on the Setup.java le in the Project Explorer and select the option Run
As | Java Application. This will launch an ADempiere setup screen.
For the client version, we need to set the elds in the following sections of the screen:
f Java
f Adempiere
f Database Server
f Mail Server (Optional)
Click on the Test button and if everything was set correctly, you will see the Ok message
at the bottom of the setup screen. In case you get errors, verify the values you have entered.
Correct them and Test until you get the Ok message. Any errors during the testing are also
shown on this window.
In case any errors occur during your practice and it is not described in the
book, you may refer to the ADempiere Wiki and forums for more information.

3. Click on the Save button. This will create the Adempiere.properties le in
the Adempiere Home directory. After creating the property le, the program tries
to build the code base but fails with a build error. Do not worry! Our intention was
to only get the Adempiere.properties le created, which we will use in our
subsequent setups.
How to do it...
Now that we have got the Adempiere.properties le out, it is a trivial task to be able
to debug the application. Here are the steps:
1. In Eclipse, open the Open Resource window and select the Adempiere.java le.
It is available under the base\src\org\compiere folder of your adempiere_360
project. This class is the entry point class for the client version.
2. Add a break-point at Line 594 inside the main method.

3. Right-click on the Adempiere.java le and select Debug As | Debug
Conguration. This will bring up the Debug Congurations window.

4. Click on the Arguments tab and specify the following VM arguments:
DPropertyFile="C:\adempiere_svn\tags\adempiere360lts\ADempiere.
properties" –
DADEMPIERE_HOME="C:\ tags\adempiere360lts"
PropertyFile: Points to the Adempiere.properties le, which we had
created earlier
ADEMPIERE_HOME: Points to the Adempiere folder

5. Click on the Debug button to start the debugging.
6. Use the toolbar on the Debug window to debug the code. This way, you can gure
out how the control is owing in the ADempiere source code and gain a better
understanding of the subject.
How it works...
Adempiere.java is the main class le which provides the entry point for the desktop
version of ADempiere. This is the class where you will nd the main method. To this class,
the two important properties—PropertyFile and ADEMPIERE_HOME must be passed so
that it can read the setup information (database, mail server, JRE path, and so on) and run
the application.

Debugging the ADempiere server application
(web version)
Working with the web/server version of ADempiere is equally practical and required as
compared to the client/desktop version. The server version runs inside a J2EE container,
like JBoss. In this recipe, we will see how to congure ADempiere and JBoss to be able to
debug the code when it is deployed as a server. Though ADempiere comes along with a JBoss
distribution, to have a better understanding of the subject matter, we will use the external
JBoss installation.
Getting ready
f Verify that JBoss is installed on your system and set up correctly
How to do it...
1. In Eclipse, go to the Servers view.
2. Right-click and select New | Server. You will see the New Server window.

This will take you to the New JBoss V4.2 Runtime window.
4. On the runtime window, enter the following values and click the Next button:
JRE: Choose JDK 1.6 or above
Application Server Directory: Set this to your JBoss installation folder
(which is JBOSS_HOME)

This will take you to the following New JBoss V4.2 Server window:
5. On the New JBoss v4.2 Server window, enter the following and click the Next button:
Address: 127.0.0.1
Port: 9080 (make sure that this port is not being used by any other
application on your system)
JNDI Port: 1099 (make sure that this port is not being used by any other
application on your system)
Server Conguration: default
Clicking on the Next button will take you to the Add and Remove window:

8. Open org.adempiere.webui.AdempiereWebUI.java and add a break-point
inside the constructor.
9. Right-click on the server entry, which we just created, and select the Open
menu option.
This will open the JBoss server Overview.
10. On the Overview screen, change the Start value under the Timeouts category to 500.
