How to add Tomcat 8 to Eclipse Kepler without installing the big whole WTP package

Tags:

Ok I am running with Eclipse Kepler. Tried today to set it up for Tomcat 8, but the adapter won't appear in the list.

Googled a bit and found tutos on SO, nixmash and vitalflux, which all sum up the same way: download the last 3.6 Eclipse WTP and unzip it in your eclipse directories.

But I don't want a whole upgrade of my Kepler to the Luna WTP version (In my understanding, this is what would actually happen). I am looking for a way to pick only the server adapters. How do I do that?

After experimenting by myself, I came up with the following solution:

  • Go to the "Install New Software..." menu

  • Use the Luna WTP url but select only the adapters (http://download.eclipse.org/webtools/repository/luna):

  • Wait for the dependencies to be resolved:

  • Complete the installation process, restart Eclipse, try to configure a new server:
