Hello Lifters!
BTW apologies in advance if this is an obvious newbie question - I did
a fair bit of searching on the list and saw JavaRebel discussions etc.
I've been taking my first baby steps with Scala/Lift (this Scala/Lift
malarkey is starting to grow on me) so I followed the getting started
guide. My first surprise (after using Rails/JSP etc) was hitting
reload on a browser after changing a snippet doesn't reload the
snippet code - you've gotta stop/restart mvn jetty:run. (Though
changing the template does).
I just wondered if someone had figured out the ninja to get the
jetty:run plugin to auto-detect snippet changes? This could well be a
tooling issue (e.g. when using eclipse with its incremental compiling
generating new class files might solve the problem) - I'm using IDEA
currently.
I did wonder if we could come up with a way to configure the jetty:run
plugin to do the right thing though irrespective of your IDE; using
the scala incremental compiler maybe? I tried adding a jetty custom
scan target to the pom...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<contextPath>/</contextPath>
<scanIntervalSeconds>1</scanIntervalSeconds>
<scanTargetPatterns>
<scanTargetPattern>
<directory>src/main/scala</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/*.scala</include>
</includes>
</scanTargetPattern>
</scanTargetPatterns>
</configuration>
</plugin>
which forces a restart fine - but it doesn't know to recompile the
Scala code. So I'm wondering if we setup the scala compiler to auto
build the code to a classes directory that the jetty plugin can then
auto-detect and restart the web app?
I just wondered if others had hit this issue & come up with an elegant
solution; to force incremental compilation of the Scala class files -
or maybe I should just switch to eclipse?
