So, in other words: destroy being able to change anything on the fly, have duplicates of nearly everything in OFBiz, etc?

That would be very different from the run-in-place semantics, and we would lose a lot of what is nice about OFBiz during development.

how about
Leave the build in the components, like they are now for development.

copying all files needed to the runtime folder like that startofbiz.*
hotdeploy folder,etc, so the runtime can be the only folder distributed.
it would require a copy section be added to each build.xml


Jacopo Cappellato sent the following on 4/4/2007 12:52 AM:
Now that we have the new "runtime folder", containing all the runtime
objects, what about moving all the build/* files from each component
into a new runtime/build/ folder?

In this way the only folder in which there will be files written while
building/running the system will be in the runtime folder.

I see advantages in this approach, especially for the distribution of
pre-built releases: the pre-built release could be simply the source
official release + the pre-built objects in the runtime folder.
Also everything apart from the runtime folder could be in a read-only
file system (for example a cd).
