Hello,
I’m developing a web application with tapestry and I’m using indifferently JBoss4 or JOnAS4 as application servers.

While I’m currently able to see runtime changes to my pages without redeploying the entire application, when pages are outside the WEB-INF directory, I have to redeploy the entire application if I work with the web application java classes.
Is there a way to use the eclipse/MyEclipseIde class loader for such application servers, so that I can avoid the entire application redeployment?

Thanks in advance,
Kiuma

Kiuma,
When you use an exploded deployment, which I believe you are using, every time you change a file, it is copied out to your app server (you can verify this by looking at the time stamps on your files). If your classes are not reloading, that may be an issue with your application server. MyEclipse does support hot syncing but if the changes are too big the hotsyncing of the changed class will fail and you will likely want to restart the web context for that particular app.

Thank you,
the real problem was that I haven’t disabled tapestry caching with -D server startup option .
Have a nice day,
kiuma
