Development Environment Setup
Here we will guide you through the process of setting up a development environment so you can access our geoserver that is serving data.
OpenLayers
For development, get the latest version of OpenLayers here. You will want to point at the lib/OpenLayers.js file so you can set breakpoints inside all .js files used by OpenLayers.
Apache Web Server
Before we can run any examples, we must set up a proxy so that requests from your domain match our WFS. Setting up a proxy is very simple and the details can be found here.
Running Examples

Running Jetty with Connection Pool
Add the following line at VM arguments under Run Configurations
-Djava.naming.factory.initial=org.mortbay.naming.InitialContextFactory
Projection in OpenLayers
In order to have projection transformation, the openlayers needs external js library called proj4js (http://proj4js.org/).
