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

[Snjezana Peco]

Have you tried Target Management (Remote Server Explorer) included in 
Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers? Among other things, RSH contains SSH 
Services. SSH Services API provides deploying an exploded/unexploded 
archive to an SSH server like deploying to the local file system. See 
http://www.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm or open the RSE perspective in Eclipse 
IDE for Java EE Developers and try to add a new connection.
