Wow... Interesting and refreshing. I had the feeling, I would have had
to restart after every single change.
Thanks a lot Pierre for the clarification. I like that.
I will also take a look at Bigfish.
Regards.

Hi anon <[email protected]>.
Jumpstarting development is easy:
1. Use the ./ant create-component task to create a complete skeleton of
a hot-deployment component. And after an ./ant build start you are ready to
use the skeleton. Just make sure that you load the component's permissions
after the startup (in webtools)
2. You can create widgets (screens, forms) without it requiring a restart
3. You can can create freemarker templates and groovy scripts without it
requiring a restart
4. You can create request-map and view-map URI's without it requiring a
restart
The elements of a component requiring a restart is services and Java code
(as it needs to be compiled. Adding new labels to the Label.xml files of
the component doesn't require a restart, but the cache needs to be flushed
to see the effects (again this is done in the webtools component).
I trust the above will help you jumpstart your development.

Hello List,
I have been looking at the tutorials on youtube of the ofbiz framework and
I was wondering what the development experience look like. I noticed in the
vid that the server has to be restarted frequently and that the startup
time can take more that 5 min. Is that really what is going on?
After seeing that, I tried the moqui framework, because I am looking for a
fully loaded opensource ecommerce framework. Sadly, moqui uses gradle and I
do not have a good experience with gradle. It is just too slow for my
taste. Is there any trick that you guys use to speed up thae ofbiz startup
time or do you guys just live with it? I left Javaland years ago because of
that issue...
Thanks.
