| Now that the Virgo Runtime Environment has been properly setup in the Eclipse workspace, including the corresponding PDE Target Platform definition, | |
| it's finally possible to create new projects. | |
| </p><p>The Virgo Tools require PDE Plug-in projects to be augmented with some additional features to be usable. As such, in order to create | |
| a new project it is necessary to use the dedicated wizard named <span class="emphasis"><em>PDE Bundle project</em></span> located within the <span class="emphasis"><em>Virgo</em></span> | |
| category: | |
| </p><p><img src="images/pde_bundle_wiz.png"></p><p> | |
| The above wizard is the standard PDE <span class="emphasis"><em>Plug-in project</em></span> wizard with some choices disabled or defaulted. | |
| In addition to the usual pages it includes an extra page where the user can optionally specify a Web context root. | |
| If a context root is specified the new project will be a Web Application bundle (WAB). If the context root is not specified | |
| the new project will be a regular OSGi bundle. | |
