I use jboss with eclipse and would highly recommend using the exploded war format for deploying during development. So eclipse does all the compile/building for you, and changes I make to any jsp, java file in either the war or ejb are deployed instantly (no wait time at all). Plus no ant scripts for building or deployment at all! I have 2 projects 1 war, 1 ejb. Each project has a folder called 'deploy' with explode war/jar directories under them. I configure jboss to use these folders as additional deploy directories. I configure eclipse to compile all classes in the exploded war to WEB-INF/classes directory, and all classes in the exploded jar to its root (myejb.jar). That's it, you are basically working with your deployed files. dsal View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4152180#...
