Hi Anthony, > > We're using appfuse 1.9 with Spring MVC, Hibernate, and Postgresql ... > deploying with JDK 1.6 (Sun), and Tomcat 5 (and 6, depending on the > developer). >
We have similar environments based on appfuse 1.9.4, except jdk 1.5 instead of 1.6 > > Any other ideas? What are you guys / gals doing to speed up development? > I've created some Ant scripts called build_devel.xml and build_test.xml, any of them for development and testing team, respectively, which are based on the original build.xml with some variations: - it has compile-*, package-* and deploy-* for every layer, in our case: common, dao, service, ws and web - every target has no dependencies to bottom layers, so, if a developer is working only on web layer, doesnt need to reconstruct all the project, just only the modified one - every developer must do a complete refresh/redeploy on every global change (i.e.: svn update) - also we have a pseudo-cache system for XDoclet generation (Hibernate and TLD) which is basically: back up the previously hbm.xml generated, don't do the hibernatedoclet target, and restore the old xml files, this is a bit odd but effective :) With those changes we gain from 2-3 minutes every "refresh", to less than 1minute, and if you are only working on web layer just deploy in tomcat in a few seconds.
