Hi,

I have been developing using myEclipseBlue for one project and IBMs Websphere Development Studio Client (an elderly version of RAD) for another for a few years now.

Although myEclipseBlue betters WDSC in many areas, WDSC has one feature that
myEclipseBlue doesnt seem to and that is if you change a servlet, when the code is deployed the user’s session isn’t lost.

This means that a developer can test, debug and fix code without having to go back to the start of the application on each iteration.

Is there away of getting myEclipseBlue to do this; I thought that maybe the ‘Enhanced’ Deployment mode would do it, but testing it doesn’t.

NB, What I’m trying to test is simply running a servlet and adding a line such as
System.out.println(“Hello Mum”); then saving it, then from a browser session requesting that servlet again, On WDSC, the Hello Mum appears in the console log, on myEclipseBlue, the session gets terminated.

Many Thanks,
Matthew Jackson

Hi MG Jackson,

The missing functionality you are reporting is a known one. RAD/WSAD is starting WAS in a special mode, which allows for extended manipulations during debugging. We have scheduled to make extensive enhancements to WAS deployment in ME 11.1. We don’t have a fixed release date for it yet, but you may expect it around the end of April.

Ok, thanks. I shall look forward to the enhancement 🙂
