The application I need to maintain contains 3 webapps. An ANT script is used in order to create 3 WARs, then wrap that in an EAR and copy that to the deploy directory. First JBoss is stopped and started afterwards. A whole cycle takes more than 1 minute. As a developer I'm not pleased with having to wait a full minute to be able to test a change. But I cannot seem to find a way to speed this up, e.g.: - Skip the EAR / WAR creation and have jboss access the build directory with separate files directly. - Just reload one webapp (like Tomcat does) instead of stopping and starting all services. Is there really no way to speed this up? I tried using JBossIDE, but the plugin refuses to create a new jboss configuration, so I'm opting for "remote debugging".
