Hi,
I am trying to setup a project to use synch-on-demand, but am having difficulties finding detailed documentation on the topic.
I have been able to get MyEclipse to start/stop WebLogic, and to deploy some of the files to the app server, but I need to customise what gets synch’d and deployed.
Currently, only the contents of the ‘web’ directory get deployed to the app server. None of the properties files, java files etc make it.
Is there a way to tell MyEclipse which files to deploy to where?
We have a relatively complex build process that constructs the JARs, WARs, and EARs. Also, there are two distributables that are built from the project … a client and a server. Can MyEclipse handle that?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Craig
Craig,
I think the easiest way to take a first cut at answers is to ask to to read our Web and Enterprise development quickstarts in the Documentation section here: http://www.myeclipseide.com/ContentExpress-display-ceid-67.html
Please pay particular attention to the Advanced sections that cover more complex deployment topics.Currently, only the contents of the ‘web’ directory get deployed to the app server. None of the properties files, java files etc make it.

Not on an artifact by artifact basis. The web directory is intended to be an exploded version of your war file. It sounds like your project is not set up this way. For properties files, simply placing them in the Java source folder at the proper level will cause Eclipse to copy them to WEB-INF/classes at build time, thus causing them to be deployed. Java source is never deployed because it’s not executable and generally not intended to be placed on your production server.
Check out the quckstarts as they’ll explain the philosophy of how things work better than I can in this post. Also, even if you decide that your build/deployment is too complex, and don’t wish to change it, you can still use our editing and debugging tools with your own deployment model.
