Hi,

I have a web application that I deployed on MyEclipse Tomcat. I chose the Exploded Archive option. I am seeing that if I make changes to a Java file within myEclipse while the server is running, the .class file in my archive does not get updated. In order for it to update I have to right click on the application in the Servers tab and click “Redeploy/Reload application”. This then triggers the entire application to be reloaded and only then is class file updated.

Is there any way to turn on hot deployment so that the class file is updated instantly without needing a redeploy? I know this option was aviable in previous versions of MyEclipse.

I am currently using…

MyEclipse for Spring

Version: 10.0.0
Build ID: 10.0.0 Build 7 (111109_1440)

Thanks,
Jehan

Jehan,

Sorry that you are seeing this issue.

Can you please update your MyEclipse for Spring to our latest version 10.6 and check if you can still replicate the issue ? Go to Help > MyEclipse Configuration Center > Software > Software Updates Available. Select MyEclipse Enterprise Edition 10.6, apply the changes,follow the wizard and restart the IDE when it prompts.

For hot deployment to work please make sure that you are starting the server in Debug mode. Also, make sure that “Project -> Build Automatically” is switched. Hot code replacement works (only?) if automatic build is switched on.

Let us know how it works for you.
