Hi All, Tomcat version: 5.5.25 OS: RHEL 1 Source code location: projects/src Compiled code location: projects/build
I am exploring the fastest deployment option when the application is in development stage. I have my source code in directory mentioned above. Then I have written ant script which compiles it in directory mentioned above and puts required files/libs in locations as required by standard webapp deployment.
Earlier I used to create war every time and manually copied it in webapps/ directory. It was getting very slow since I have a lot of external jars and war file creation is very slow.
Then I read about manager ant tasks to deploy the application and tried using them.
Now, when I change something in source and compile it, I want it to reflect in tomcat without undeploying/deploying again. I tried reloading the webapp using manager ant task but it didn't work. Then I saw that tomcat actually copied contents of build directory in its webapps/ directory which is probably why reloading doesn't reflect in tomcat.
How can I make sure that new compiled content reflects in tomcat without undeploying/deploying OR copying build directory in webapps/ directory manually ?
