[SUBMIT] J2EEDeploy, deploy an ear on a Sun J2EE RI server

[Stefano Mancarella]

I've written a task which deploys an enterprise archive on a Sun J2EE
reference implementation server.
The task is very simple (ATM it only forks and without any process control).
Perhaps someone will want to improve it.
Don't know if anyone has already written something better for this purpose,
anyway here it is.

J2EEDeploy.java
Description: Binary data

Title: J2EEDeploy Task

J2EEDeploy

Description

Deploys an enterprise archive on a Java^TM 2 SDK, Enterprise Edition reference implementation server.

The task has been tested with version 1.2 and above

Parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
earfile	The enterprise archive (.ear) file name.	Yes
hostname	The J2EE server host to deploy to.	No, default is "localhost"
j2eehome	The local directory where j2sdkee is installed.	Yes
clientjar	The file name of the client jar to generate.	No, default is no client jar generated.

Examples

<j2eedeploy earfile="myApp.ear" j2eehome="c:\j2sdkee1.3" />

This deploys the myApp.ear archive on a J2EE server hosted on localhost.
J2EE classes and tools are searched in c:\j2sdkee1.3.

<j2eedeploy dir="jars" earfile="myApp.ear"
    j2eehome="/usr/local/j2sdkee1.2.1"
    hostname="myServer.myDomain.com"
    clientjar="myAppClient.jar" />

This deploys the jars/myApp.ear archive on a J2EE server hosted on myServer.myDomain.com, generating a client jar named jars/myAppClient.jar.
J2EE classes and tools are searched in /usr/local/j2sdkee1.2.1.
