When you run the JRun Deplyment Wizard for the first time, it will add a menu for it in JBuilder on the Tools menu. However, the way it does it causes an error.
Why doesn't the Tab key work anymore in JBuilder 7?
How can I set VM parameters for an application generated by the Native Executable wizard?
CVS + SSH + JB7

Here's how to fix it:

In bin/JBuilder.config, the following lines are added:

  # JRun config
  include jrun.config

JRun.config contains the following lines:

  #
  # JRunWizard : JRun Integration for JBuilder  
  #
  # JRUNWIZARD_HOME - location where the wizard is installed
  # JRUN_HOME - location where JRun is installed
  #
  vmparam "-Djrunwizard.dir=D:\swdev\Borland\JBuilder7\projects\jrunwizard"
  vmparam "-Djrun.home=D:\swdev\Macromedia\JRun4.0"
  vmparam "-Dejipt.home=D:\swdev\Macromedia\JRun4.0"

  addjars D:\swdev\Macromedia\JRun4.0\lib
  addjars D:\swdev\Macromedia\JRun4.0\servers\lib
  addjars D:\swdev\Macromedia\JRun4.0\lib\ext
  addjars D:\swdev\Borland\JBuilder7\projects\jrunwizard\jbuilder-jrunwizard.jar

The problem is, the quotes around the terms after the vmparam tag. Change these to:

  vmparam -Djrunwizard.dir=D:\swdev\Borland\JBuilder7\projects\jrunwizard
  vmparam -Djrun.home=D:\swdev\Macromedia\JRun4.0
  vmparam -Dejipt.home=D:\swdev\Macromedia\JRun4.0

and the JBuilder will launch normally. Under the Tools menu, you'll see a JRun EJB Wizard menu item. Selecting it launches the JRun deployment wizard as expected.

It's not quite the seamless integration I'd like to see JBuilder 7 have with JRun 4, but it's a start.

There are several problems with this. First, most non-emacs users find this to be an unintuitive use of Tab. Second, this only works with Java files, so for HTML, JSP's, XML, etc. the Tab key has been rendered useless. Third, even in Java files the indentation isn't always perfect (but it's pretty good).

One simple solution to this is to rebind Tab back to its old "indent" action, and put "format-code" on F2 which is bound to "indent" by default. In other words, exchange the actions of Tab and F2. Another option is to simply get used to the new Tab behavior and use F2 for what used to be called Tab.

A highly useful resource for getting SSH to work can be found at:

http://mah.everybody.org/docs/ssh

The above page explains how to set up ssh-agent, which like I said, won't help with JB7. But it does get you half way there. Once you've got ssh-agent working, you just need to tell ssh to use the same private key ssh-agent does. By default, ssh looks at ~/.ssh/identity, but ssh-keygen usually creates keys called ~/.ssh/id_dsa or ~/.ssh/id_rsa. So if you don't already have ~/.ssh/identity, try this command:

ln -s ~/.ssh/id_dsa ~/.ssh/identity

If you use id_rsa, use it instead. Then, make sure the permissions for .ssh and everything in it are readable only by your login (600).

So, to test, make sure ssh-agent is not running and try to ssh to the remote system. If that works, JB7 will work too.
