Chapter 3 – Development <strong>with</strong> Community Edition 49<br />
When you start Eclipse, it asks for a workspace; this is where you will work and store your<br />
projects. You can take the default workspace.<br />
The first time that you open a new workspace, Eclipse will display a welcome screen. You<br />
can close it by clicking on the X in the tab. Then you should see the workbench where you<br />
can start your work.<br />
3.3 Eclipse Integration <strong>with</strong> WEP<br />
In order to work <strong>with</strong> Community Edition <strong>with</strong>in Eclipse, you need to download and install<br />
the <strong>WebSphere</strong> <strong>Application</strong> <strong>Server</strong> Community Edition Eclipse plug-in (WEP). If you are<br />
working <strong>with</strong> IBM Data Studio, you can skip steps 1 through 7 since WEP functionality is<br />
already included.<br />
Follow these steps:<br />
1. Start Eclipse<br />

3. Select the Available Software tab and click on the Add Site button. Then enter this<br />

4. You will see this URL added to the list. Click on the + symbol to have Eclipse<br />
search the site for updates and wait for the new features to appear. You will see<br />
the "Pending..." message as shown in Figure 3.2 until all features are found. This<br />
can take some minutes depending on your Internet speed.<br />
