We have many projects (but two is a simple example) - and if even a jsp page is changed, WTP with Tomcat tries to rebuild the entire application (dependent jars and all).
We're *evaluating* whether switching to Eclipse is a viable option for us. Eclipse seems to be more stable - MyEclipse seems to be more inundated with bloat lately - but the managed deploy works much nicer than WTP does. We talked about using Jetty, but Eclipse doesn't have a Jetty server adapter for download through the "Install New Server Adapter" interface - and it's my understanding that the app servers that appear in this list are ones that have been marked as working with WTP. -----Original Message----- From: Michael Laccetti [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 02, 2008 10:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Success with app servers in Eclipse WTP - Hot Deploy This question isn't really Ivy-related, but I'll pollute the list since this is an interesting issue. The WTP issue seems to suggest that if you have two projects open in Eclipse, and if one depends on the other, that the deployment will trigger an entire context reload. So, I assume you have to projects, and just don't want to deal with the whole reloading issue? As an aside, is there any reason why you are switching from MyEclipse to Eclipse? And finally, have you considered Jetty? It seems to have a pretty established base for being used during test-related work.
