Hi,
With the latest welcome-tomcat-server assembly, I could run the
pre-shipped welcome plugins, and everything seems well, with pre-
compiled and non-pre-compiled jsps.
Later, I tried to deploy a simple web application via deploy
command, it failed as expected ;-)
The current problem I think we need to solve first is that we
should have a decision about how to store the package in the
repository. From the usual work style in OSGI, it is better to keep
a packed file there. About the inplace way, so far I could not see
any way to deploy a folder to the OSGI runtime. Currently, all the
copying work is done by the implementations of ResourceContext, each
modulebuilder would be resposible for copying the module files to
the folder in the repository. An intuitive way is to provide a new
implementation for the ResourceContext, it would support to update
the packed file.
Any comment before I try it ? I did not go through all the
deployment codes, something might be missed. ^_^
I don't think we can support in-place deployment until after we figure
out how to support direct use of bundles in our maven-like repo
without copying them into the osgi structure. I think about this
sometimes but don't regard it as a high priority.
Can you be more specific about what doesn't work, and how you tried to
deploy? I didn't know any of the deploy commands worked enough to
even start deployment. If they do, It's not obvious to me what might
be broken. Does a packed bundle get created? Does geroimo know how
to tell osgi about it?
thanks
