I'm new to Tapestry, and I'm currently trying to evaluate it for a project. I've managed to get the examples to work, and I've ran through a few tutorials.

The problem I'm having is that I need to repackage and then redeploy a .war file to JBoss for each and every modification I make to the templates. What I want however is that changes to the files are detected automatically and a simple browser refresh shows the new results. It doesn't have to work with a .war file (only final deployment will use a .war file, during development I'm more interested in convience).

One of the tutorials mentions that it is possible to have Tapestry not cache it's templates by specifying a vm parameter:

-Dorg.apache.tapestry.disable-caching=true

However, specifying this for my JBoss launch in Eclipse doesn't have an effect. I assume this is because the entire context is stored in the .war file, which of course won't change if I edit a file in Eclipse.

If I use only Tomcat, I can get this to work, however I would like to be able to do this with the JBoss + Tomcat combination. So far, I checked the last 6 months of this mailinglist, googled for several hours and read various boards, but I'm no closer to a solution. I suspect it must be possible to put somekind of .xml file in the JBoss deploy folder, and have this .xml file point directly to my Eclipse workspace (just like you can do with Tomcat), but so far I've been unable to find anything about this. Does anyone have any ideas or tips I might look into to get this to work?
