 That is interesting. Is the # supposed to be part of the filename?

Re: Multiple war files for the same application context.

Lol that was just an example. There are thousands of jsps and servlets.
With regards to the path, i am using struts and tiles so the directories are
not really part of the path to the resource via the browser.  That path will
be configured in the tiles and struts configuration.

I am trying this foo#bar.war approach and see how it will work.

Thanks

Multiple war files for the same application context.

2009-11-16 Thread Ziggy
Hi guys,

Is it possible to deploy multiple war files for the same application? for
example if i have an application that is accessed via http:///
www.test.com/myapp, i would usually have a single war file called myapp.war
and deploy everthing in that one file.

is it possible to deploy myapp1ArticleManager.war, myapp1Forum.war etc and
have them all be as part of the one myapp application?

Any links or tutorials on how to do this would be very helpfull. And what is
the term used for this kind of deployment?

Thanks

Hi Hassan,

I was recently looking at a CMS portal and found that the portal allowed
plugins/application to be deployed as war files. The plugins themselves are
portlets so not quite the type of application i am using.

Is it the case that maybe it is possible with portlets but not standard
servlet based webapps?

Thanks

RE: Multiple war files for the same application context.

2009-11-16 Thread Joseph Morgan
Are you trying to deploy elements of a larger applications separately?

It seems you just need different JAR files for the application, and,
though those can be deployed to the same web app separately, you're not
really gaining anything, since the app will have to be restarted anyway,
and you might as well stick with the WAR file.

Sure, the whole point of a portal is to integrate non-related apps
and data sources. So you access the portal context which basically
proxies in the output of those plugins.

You could certainly integrate the output of other contexts into your
primary one, using iframes, AJAX widgets, backend web services,
etc. but ultimately they're still separate contexts.

Yes that is exactly what i am trying to do.

I did consider the separate jar file option but i couldnt figure out a way
of including the jsp files in a jar file.

I basically have a large struts/Tiles based application and would like to
separate the deployment of each individual module of the application. I want
to try and avoid having to redeploy the whole application everytime there is
a change.

Re: Multiple war files for the same application context.

2009-11-16 Thread Ziggy
I see what you mean Hassan. I had a look at how the core portal engine
accesses the portlets and it looks like it uses the plugins context to
access it and this is just hidden from the user.

thanks

You can deploy so-called 'multilevel' apps, if you want to separate out 
(somewhat) independant components - which may make build  deploy cycles 
easier, for example, as you don't have to replace and test the whole app.


The '#' hash character is used like so:

 myapp.war
 myapp#news.war
 myapp#admin.war

 /myapp/
 /myapp/news/
 /myapp/admin/
