[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBIDE-7851) Better usability of feature 'touch web.xml'

[Rob Stryker (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-7851?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12589743#comment-12589743 ] 

Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-7851:
------------------------------------

Full publish deletes the deployed module and republishes it in its entirety. Therefore a new web.xml is in existence and does have a newer timestamp.

> People keep asking me, if JBDS or tools can simply touch web.xml. When they develop, they try to 'Full publish' on the deployed project, which does not actually touch web.xml (why?) They workaround it touching it by hand or simply editing and saving trivial change. 
> Almost nobody including me is able to use our button in main toolbar. That is probably because almost nobody uses the main toolbar and does not expect such feature there.
> Can this action be added to context menu of deployed archive and possibly have some shortcut for it?
