> Here is an initial start of directory-based hot deployment for Geronimo.  I 
> have not had the chance to update it with the things I would like to see, so 
> I'm going ahead and submitting it, so a commiter can tweak it and get it into 
> a build.
> Basically this is a GBean service that monitors a specified directory in the 
> filesystem for any "additions, modifications, or deletions".  Based on the 
> event, a particual module in the filesystem will either be deployed, 
> redeployed, or undeployed.  This service takes the assumtion that the 
> deployment plan is packaged within the module. 
> Also, the specified directory is currently a hard-coded attribute in the 
> deployment plan.  It would be nice if the configuration started up a webapp 
> as well,and the gbean was linked to this webapp so that the directory could 
> be changed on the fly, and or multiple directories as well as other options 
> could be specified.  Perhaps this could be something configurable in the 
> console?
> Also, I am currently calling the org.apache.geronimo.deployment.Deployer to 
> do the deploy.  I initially wanted to reference the Deployer gbean and invoke 
> deploy through it, but was having issues with that, so I used this as a 
> workaround.
> The class that monitors the file sytem I found on the internet, however it 
> was only able to detected generic changes.  I made modifications to the file 
> so that these changes to the filesystem are catagorized as either additions, 
> modifiecations, or deletions.  See the license on the file, as I am unsure 
> weather this can be used or wether it will need to be re-written from 
> scratch, which if is the case should be trivial.
> Please let me know if this is a good start, any suggestions, and if you think 
> this is something that can be pushed into 1.0 I will be glad to spend 
> additional time on it to get it in.  I did this more for a learning exercise 
> so its pretty scrappy right now, but I think alot could be done with it.
> Thanks!!
> Thanks.
