IBM Application Server Toolkit
The Application Migration tool in the IBM WebSphere Application Server Migration Toolkit helps you easily move applications from a source application server to WebSphere Application Server v7.0, v8.0 or v8.5. Source application servers currently supported include WebLogic Server, JBoss Server, Oracle AS and Tomcat. The Application Migration plug-in works on an imported EAR file. The tool scans the JSPs, Java™ source code, and deployment descriptors for porting issues and reports these issues in the Problems view in your Eclipse-based IDE. Most of the porting issues that you could encounter will be identified by the tool and, in many cases, the tool will offer a quick fix to resolve them.
