Jay Balunas resolved JBSEAM-2455.
---------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 2.1.0.GA
                       (was: The future)
       Resolution: Done


This is still an issue with Weblogic 10.3, but this is a limitation of weblogic not an issue with Seam.

>From my investigation I found out that Weblogic's "FastSwap" feature, which provides hot deployment, only work on classes in the "WEB-INF\classes" directory.  The best explanation I found for it was this blog http://m-button.blogspot.com/2008/08/weblogic-103-has-been-released-what-new.html.  I did find some other references as well in the BEA documentation.

This has been documented in the weblogic chapter of the seam reference guide with the settings that work around this issue.  If a weblogic setting is found can control this behavior we will update the documentation for it.

> A WAR application generated by seam-gen and modified as described in the new "Weblogic" chapter in the reference guide does not pick up the class files that deployed into the "WEB-INF/dev" directory.
> The easiest way to describe duplicating it is to refer to the reference guide chapter.  What the user sees is that no matter what is entered into the login page it is a failed login - with no errors in the logs  If the class files in the "WEB-INF/dev" directory are moved to the "WEB-INF/classes" directory the login page behaves as expected.
> Note the weblogic chapter to the reference guide is currently being finalized and I will note when it is checked in.
