Ivan commented on GERONIMODEVTOOLS-580:
---------------------------------------
For the JSP files, after changing the settings in Tomcat's configuration
files, we could make it take effect once we changed without deployment. For the
Servlet classes, currently, I think, the redployment action is must, Geronimo
needs to re-analysis those classes, for example, user may add a WebService
annotation for it. I know that the Server has a in-place option, with it, no
copy action is need in the redeployment process, so it may reduce the time
effor.
The possible solution is that, in GEP, the user could turn on the in-place
option and JSP debug option, while the user changes those files, if they are of
JSP type, then no action is taken. If they are of Java classes, redeploy the
app.
> Servlet/JSP update forces a complete redeploy of a WAR

> I've had several users comment to me that application development with GEP is
> not as fast as it should be. Basic scenario is create an application, deploy,
> test, update, test, update, etc... IIUC, for each update, GEP is repackaging
> the WAR and running a redeploy. Repackaging/redeploy can take some time (for
> large apps > 30 seconds). IIUC, we could be updating the appropriate
> JSP/Servlet classes directly and greatly improving this behavior. I don't
> know how this works, however. Anybody interested in looking at this? I'd like
> to see this improved in 2.2. If it's something that could be fixed in 2.1.x,
> that would be great. But that might depend on how extensive the changes
> are...
