I have the following
project a – ear project
project b – ejb project
project c – web project
project d – java projectb and c are added as modules of project a
project d is a referenece project of project a ( the ear )
project b and project c depends on the project dthe exploded deployment works fine, except that the hot sync is working for files in project b and c, but not working for files in project d.
It appears that project b ( the ejb) and project c ( web ) are exploded, but the project d ( java ) are stored in a jar file.
Is there a way to have hot sync work on a java project as well.Henry
Henry,
Unfortunately there isn’t a way to support this at the current time. If you check the EAR settings, you’ll see the two deployment rules for dependent Java projects, either JAR it or ignore it. Unfortunate if we don’t JAR is, EAR’s have no construct for exploded classes to exist (like a /classes dir) that I’m aware of, so we can only offer to JAR the project or ignore it completely, which rules out hot-syncing changes on the fly.In websphere and weblogic environments, if the d.jar file was expanded and replaced by the directory d.jar, the application works properly, and the hot sync can work as well.
It would be great if myeclipse can support this, cause in large enterpise projects, share code are often put into separate java project, and referenced by the web and ejb modules.Henry
Henry,
Do you mean in the root of the EAR, creating a d.jar directory that at it’s root is the base of the output dir for the Java project instead of having a JAR file, and that wlil work?… does this work for JBoss or Resin by chance? If it works for all (most?) of the enterprise JEE servers, I don’t see why we can’t add this as a feature.
