Glen Mazza commented on MTOMCAT-101:
------------------------------------
What's wrong with using HTTP? It's not that hard to configure:
http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/web_service_tutorial#maventomcat, and is
the proper, Tomcat-defined way to deploy a webapp remotely that takes into
account permissions and whatever lifecycle steps Tomcat needs to do to
deploy/undeploy/redeploy a web application. I think what you're asking for
should be done via the Maven Antrun plugin, if you're still inclined to go that
route. But to provide a formal method for copying files to Tomcat's remote
directory would be like endorsing that method of deployment as well as
needlessly duplicating the Antrun plugin, things nobody should be doing and
also something that can also raise many other JIRAs of subsequent problems that
occur with this alternative route.

> It would be great to have the ability to deploy a webapp to Tomcat without
> using HTTP and the Tomcat Manager, by simply doing a filesystem copy of the
> built war file to the location specified.
> We currently use an ant profile to do this, but want to replace this with a
> proper plugin.
> We will be looking at contributing this feature in the near future.
