Install and run the snapshot build
This wiki page is used to explain how to install and use the latest snapshot build. Since the current 0.4.0 S-build (http://www.eclipse.org/stp/downloads/downloads.php) has some major problems, we suggest to use the snapshot build instead.
For user's convenience, i created a all-in-one package to download at the end of this wiki page.

About the update sites
We are still working on those update sites:

- Apache CXF update site, coming soon...
- Apache Tuscany update site. ?
All-in-One package
You can download the STP all in one package from here:stp_all_in_one04092007.zip
just copy all plugins from that package, to your eclipse3.2 installation.
Please notice:
- We only support eclipse3.2 for now.
- Please set the java compiler to jdk 1.5 in preference page (1.4 and 1.6 are not supported)
- Need to install CXF runtime to test the JAX-WS functions.
Three known issues:
- Can't set the JAX-WS runtime directory and soapbinding from project's properties. But config from Preference page works fine.
- The Document/Lit/Bare doesn't work. This is caused by a bug in Apache CXF runtime.
So If you are following Tyler's article, please give @SoapBinding(Document/Literal/Wrapped) annotation on web service class.
- The HTTP/REST style client has problem.
Will give HTTP 500 error in the runtime we are using. But the standalone client run from Eclipse java launch configuration works fine.
