Re: Adding a symlink from inside the app after deployment - What's the best approach?
2010/3/1 emerson cargnin echofloripa.y...@gmail.com: Am I wrong or tomcat 7 will provide support for folder aliasing (pull in resources from external locations)? http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox//tomcat-dev/200905.mbox/4a1c5275.7010...@apache.org Yes, it will. See http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/trunk/webapps/docs/config/context.xml?view=markup look for attribute name=aliases there. The main problem in packaging this content inside each app (and not using the symlink) is that we have the requirement that this content should be deployed outside of the release cycle of the applications. Does unpacking and repacking a zip archive (which a war file ultimately is) requires a release cycle for you?

RE: Adding a symlink from inside the app after deployment - What's the best approach?
From: emerson cargnin [mailto:echofloripa.y...@gmail.com] Subject: Adding a symlink from inside the app after deployment - What's the best approach? What is the best way to implement this, add a context listener and create the symlink from inside the listener? The best way is probably not to do it at all. Just include the common JSPs in the war when you run the script that packages it (or them, if more than one war). Having such a directory that's common to your webapps saves nothing other than some amount of very inexpensive disk space, while complicating deployment and requiring considerable coordination when updating the JSPs. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.

Actually I just started experiencing this issue, the content of the symlink being erased. The funny thing is that it didn't happened before. The main problem in packaging this content inside each app (and not using the symlink) is that we have the requirement that this content should be deployed outside of the release cycle of the applications.
