    You still can add some check-points even though you run a workflow
    which contains the EcogridWriter actor in a kepler GUI that is
    started from the Eclipse.<br>
    <br>
    Yes, the user needs to add the jar files which contains the custom
    actor class and other needed classes to his kepler. We use the
    module and suite management system to handle this case. <br>

      <br>
      I just wanted to try and see the progress of the program by
      putting some check-points in eclipse. I was thinking it would be
      similar to running the HelloWorld actor from Eclipse like
      mentioned in the link for coding the HelloWorld actor. <br>
      <br>
      I want to see how this EcogridWriter actor is behaving according
      to its code and I am trying to see if I can find something that I
      can use from the way Ecogrid actor is coded. <br>
      <br>
      The reason why I want to see this is because after I code for my
      custom actor in Eclipse I want to know how I can run this custom
      actor and use it in Kepler (will this be similar to the HelloWorld
      actor example?). <br>
      <br>
      Another question linked to this is going to be, how another user
      who does not have the code for my actor will be able to use my
      custom actor? Does that user need to add any jar or get the source
      code for that custom actor to be able to use it in his version of
      Kepler?<br>

            I never ran an actor from the main class in Eclipse. The
            EcogridWriter class doesn't have a main method at all, so it
            is impossible to run it in this way. Is there any special

                  I followed all the steps mentioned in the link and
                  tried the HelloWorld program (actor) using eclipse
                  referring to the following link. <a

                  Once I program this HelloWorld and run this from
                  Eclipse Kepler starts up and then I go to Instantiate
                  Component and follow those instructions and this actor
                  runs successfully.<br>
                  <br>
                  What I am trying to do now is run the EcogridWriter
                  Actor from Eclipse (as opposed to opening kepler
                  directly and using the component) and when I run this
                  EcogridWriter actor from Eclipse I get an exception
                  that says main class cannot be found. I am attaching a
                  couple screen shots for your reference. The first
                  screen shot shows the what I am trying to do in
                  Eclipse, and in the next screen shot the error that
                  comes up on the console. <br>

                        May you start up Kepler on Eclipse? If you
                        can't, please see the instruction at:<br>
                        <a moz-do-not-send="true"

                        <br>
                        If you can start the Kepler, you may search
                        "EcogridWriter" on the Component Search panel
                        (the left side of the kepler windows). Then you
                        may drag the actor from the search result panel
                        to the canvas. The actor will be instantiate
                        during the dragging.<br>
                        <br>
                        Hope this is helpful.<br>
