webapp does seem to be the environment that is most talked about. In
particular combining tuscany and the sca application into a war (which is
what we show in the samples). What do you mean by prebuilt? Do you mean
your new approach of having a tomcat war.
for the case where tuscany is included in the webapp itself our current
approach with the binary distribution lets a developer
download tuscany distribution
* configure development environment to allow tuscany to be included in the
webapp
We have ant scripts in the samples
I believe Sebastien's Eclipse integration allows for this but I haven't
tried it
build the war including the sca application
copy war to tomcat
The value of this is that it allows a Tuscany webapp to be redistributed
and run on a standard Tomcat with no pre-configuration to install Tuscany.
This might be needed for some production environments, but it isn't the way
a developer would want to work. The distro is targeted at developers, so
we shouldn't include pre-built samples in it that use this approach.

for the case where tuscany provides a war that runs in tomcat and allows
contributions to be deployed by dropping them in.
download tuscany distribution
* configure tomcat by copying the tuscany war in
build sca appplication as a separate contribution
copy application to tuscany webapp directory
In both cases there is the notion of configuring the environment (*). This
step could be the selection of a different distribution and the unpacking of
it. It could also be supported with a single distribution that is unpacked
and suitably configured (manually or with a tool).
Are you thinking of some magic that that allows this to work more
effectively with separate distributions?
