I'm running tomcat locally on WinXP as a service. Now I'm starting to do
webapp development.
By experiment I've found the way to re-deploy a webapp when running
Tomcat as a service is:
Stop Tomcat service (with Procrun)
Remove the subdirectory of the webapp to be updated from .../Tomcat
5.5/webapps subdirectory
Drop the war into .../Tomcat 5.5/webapps subdirectory
Start Tomcat (with Procrun)
And this works fine.
I'd like to do the same sequence inside Ant as part of the webapp build.
I can stop the Tomcat service from the commandline with "tomcat5.exe
//SS//" and I expect that will work from inside Ant too.
But how do I *restart* Tomcat WinXP service from inside Ant?
"tomcat5.exe //SS//" doesn't work (the service how-to says it's called
only from the Service Manager). I hesitate to try "tomcat5.exe //IS//"
until someone gives me the go-ahead After all, I've *stopped* tomcat
with //SS// not uninstalled the service ... and why install something
(with //IS//) that's already there?
Thanks in advance for your help.
