[jbosstools-dev] SSH deployer: Something interesting I've been working on

[Rob Stryker]

I do not use the Resource API at all really. The Module Factories do to 
create their IModuleResource[] tree, but once you get down to publishing 
I never deal with the resource API at all.

I'm not sure how using the Resource API is superior to simple file 
copies. I could maybe understand it if the deploy folder / destination 
were in the workspace, as the workspace would need to be aware of those 
files existence. However a simple refresh on a project would accomplish 
the same thing after using the generic java.io APIs.   I see no obvious 
superiority of the Resource API to warrant using it.


-- To find / play with my SSH deploying, just create a new SSH server. 
The code for it is in its own plugin:  org.jboss.ide.eclipse.as.ssh.  It 
needs a bit of polish. The server has no wizard at this point and the 
initial requirements / required data must be manually put in the Server 
Editor.  The host is on page one, where it always is, but the username / 
password / hosts file is on the deployment page.
