[JBoss-dev] FW: deployer stuff

[marc fleury]

FYI conversation between Scott and I, if I don't have time to work on this this week I will commit the work as is, which compiles and runs fairly well but hasn't been fully tested and exposes a few bugs still.   I trust that if I drop the JBossDeployer in your lap you guys will whip in shape in 32 seconds flat   The features are full integration of deployer architecture, Main deployer talking to sub-*ar*-specific deployers, full support for run-time pluggability of deployers as services. Unlimited number of deployers supported support for hot adding directories to the watched directories at runtime full integration of classloader generation so as to have the same class visibility integration across EVERYTHING, not just the services stack but also the war the ejb and just *everything* so your services classes will dynamically see your ear classes support for packaged and unpacked mode (directory) support for bare-xml files and structures, no classes just metadata, put classes on web "drop anything" support in deploy, directories, sar, jar/rar/ear/war/ classes, xml snippets, anything support for arbitrary sub packaging, want to do an EJB that deploys a service which contains an EJB and a SAR, plus a directory and a couple of classes that talk to a ear inside the packaging? knock yourself out, we take care of classloaders. support for hot redeploy of *anything*, just like we did applications hot deploy without compilation, the new JBoss Deployer support hot deploy and redeploy of server modules, rars, sars, classes, jar war anything   simplified codebase, really really simple, really     so I will try to commit soon   marcf     -----Original Message----- From: Scott M Stark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 10:10 AM To: marc fleury Subject: Re: deployer stuff   Personally I don't care as this is alpha and there are no guarentees. ----- Original Message ----- From: marc fleury To: Scott M Stark Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 12:58 PM Subject: RE: deployer stuff ok I am thinking of something ballsy just commit as is, which in itself will take me a day given all the changes that have happened since my last update and just let you guys debug it, what do you think?   marcf -----Original Message----- From: Scott M Stark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 10:02 AM To: marc fleury Subject: deployer stuff If your not going to have time you can tar up your work and I'll do the final testing and merge.
