Enabling JRebel

To use the current version of JRebel in Eclipse Indigo, you must make these settings in each project:

1. Turn on Build Automatically from Project menu.
2. Generate rebel.xml file by context-clicking the project name. 

For web work:

1. When defining a server such as Tomcat or Jetty, set the Publishing property to Never publish automatically.

The JRebel configuration wizard says: For Web projects, JRebel expects to find the rebel.xml configuration file in the WEB-INF/classes directory in the target .war file.
