This is awkward.. if live class reloading (LCR) doesn't work on Tomcat, and Glassfish, because JBoss uses Tomcat under the covers, I'd guess that it doesn't work on JBoss either. Although I haven't used webLogic or Websphere, I can't make an intelligent guess on whether it works there or not.. But it seems very misleading to state in the docs that T5 has LCR, if it doesn't work with probably 50%+ of the java app servers/servlet containers (I guess that Tomcat, Jboss, and glassfish cover probably 75%+ of java web app developers). If Tomcat had a miniscule market share, then one could be justified in saying 'T5 works, Tomcat is broken', however w/ things being as I described the majority of deployed T5 apps don't support LCR.
Now, if Jetty is the only setup that works reliably (that is LCR w/o having to redeploy), wouldn't it serve everyone best to clearly state that in the docs? That is, the docs should explicitly describe that this is a special setup for development purposes that works only w/ Jetty (or at least clearly state that it doesn't work w Tomcat, Glassfish, Jboss, etc)? I understand that it is abit unfair to T5 as it was intentionally designed to support LCR; however the docs are most useful when they describe things accurately . What does everyone think? Should I file a jira issue for this? cheers, Alex Kotchnev - original message - Subject: Re: Live class reloading problems From: "Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 11/20/2008 10:50 Em Thu, 20 Nov 2008 01:27:18 -0300, akochnev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escreveu: > I'm running into some trouble w/ the live class reloading feature (the > template reloading works fine), tested both on Tomcat 6 , Glassfish 3 > Prelude, and Glassfish V2 (all three servers support exploded war > deployment). As far as I know, Tapestry's live class reloading never really worked in Tomcat (because of it, not because of Tapestry), but I haven't tested it for a while. I don't know about Glassfish. -- Thiago H. de Paula Figueiredo Independent Java consultant, developer, and instructor http://www.arsmachina.com.br/thiago --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
