IntelliJ IDEA new version 13 says it now supports Tomcat 8.

Bug to track WTP fix in Eclipse to support Tomcat 8 HERE.

**Update 9/29/13 - Eclipse Kepler SR1 just arrived, but alas! No WTP support for Tomcat 8. Just change the last line in bin/startup.sh to be (note the addition of 'jpda'): exec '$PRGDIR'/'$EXECUTABLE' jpda start Eclipse create a remote debugging configuration for localhost port 80, launch it after starting Tomcat, and you can put breakpoints in the source code.

That said, it's not very hard to debug with Tomcat 8 inside Eclipse. **Update 8/7/13 - Rossen Stoyanchev updated the Spring 4.0.0.M2 blog and added some jpda wisdom and shared that yeah, he's using remote debugging: They (per Rossen Stoyanchev's Spring 4.0 blog post and examples) use JSR-356, which is implemented in Tomcat 8, theoretically to be back-ported at some point to Tomcat 7.Īn answer to the broader question of 'How can I easily get a development environment going for Spring 4 WebSocket support?' would be nice, but it would also still be nice to know how to plug in unsupported web servers to Eclipse. If you're wondering why I'm trying to do this at all, I'm playing around with Spring 4.0.0.M1 and 4.0.0.M2 WebSocket stuff. Is my only option to get it (Tomcat 8) running locally outside of Eclipse and maybe hook a remote debugger into it for stepping through code? Will that even work for Eclipse Kepler + Tomcat 8? IntelliJ IDEA 12 couldn't do it in the 30 minutes of time I put into that path. the Tomcat 7 adapter doesn't work, and it doesn't look like there's a new extension for it to download in the 'Install new Extension' dialog.

In Eclipse Kepler though, there is no supported adapter in the add server list for Tomcat 8. Update 2/27/14: 8 is released now, and adapters built for WTP, just not integrated into eclipse bundles yet. Now there is a RC version on the main Apache Tomcat page.

Tomcat 8 is still in development, but you can get it here. EDIT : Eclipse Luna is here, and support for Tomcat 8 is included in the bundled WTP : ) Happy days!
