Hey Max..
1) AFAIK the .components file describes different types of components
but it
is not generic enough to simply describe arbitrary packaging
configurations.. It's main benefit is it carries a lot of metadata inside
the file, hence why i've allowed free-form "property" elements at any
node
in the tree of my .packages file..
mkay...what are free-form property elements usable/used for ?
2) I agree completely, and this is already something I've been
working
on.
Copy-on-save/modify and Synchronize-on-delete are both supported (if not
yet
100% fully functional yet) in my current implementation
cool - let me know when it hit the cvs (i'm currently working intensively
on trying
to create a usable seam project environment where this is an important
factor ;)
btw. one thing that I think is important is that when you change jsp's,
html's whatever
they should be synched instantly and jboss should detect them, but if you
change code
then the autodeployment (which is done by auto-touch in jboss afaik)
should only be done
when explicitly asked for it...e.g. a short cut/action of some sort.
3) The MainDeployer MBean takes deployment URLs as a JMX attribute,
so
theoretically it would be as simple as running twiddle to add the user's
project deployment URL at runtime. I'm honestly not sure if the
MainDeployer
supports changing the deploymentURLs attribute at runtime or if it's one
of
the few "static configurations" of JBoss. Of course the downside to this
would be no transparency and the IDE would have to manage persisting that
setting.
well it could be an option...
I'm not sure how WTP handles deployment, Rob can you shed some
light? Is
WTP
auto-setting up the J2EE package for the adapter or is the adapter
expected
to do it?
rob?
