How to run GeoNetwork using embedded Jetty under Eclipse ?

• create a Java project
• svn co ​https://geonetwork.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/geonetwork/trunk in your new Java project
• define the following directory as source directory
  • src
  • jeeves/src
  • cachingxslt/src
• add the lib in your project build path
  • web/geonetwork/WEB-INF/lib/*.jar
  • web/intermap/WEB-INF/lib/*.jar
  • jetty/lib//*.jar
• click on "Run configuration ..."
• add a new "Java Application"
• configure the Main panel:
  • Main class is the Jetty main start class org.mortbay.start.Main (If you can't find this class using the search button, check that jetty/start.jar is in your build path)

• configure the Arguments panel
  • working directory is the bin folder.
  • VM arguments allows to manage memory used by the application

• check the classpath contains all necessary jar files.

• add source folder (needed for debugging)

• save and start the application using normal/debug/profiling mode.

Issues

• I'm still looking how to redirect all logs info (including geonetwork.log) to the eclipse console view.
