I'm currently using WTP just for editing xml and jsp (btw, I would love that it supported EL autocompletion for the MVC model). OTOH I'm a bit reluctant to adopt the entire web WTP proyect approach, I prefer to control my vanilla java project from ant targets. Anyway, regarding the ant deploy task, I will follow advice from you all and stop worrying about making sense of what the developer manual suggests in this respect. I will put my build directory under webapps, or alternatively a symlink to it, or I will just deploy an xml context descriptor pointing to my build directory anywhere in the filesystem. Thank you all. Cheers, Carlos

Hi. All I can say is, that you don't want to deploy your war file through an ant task to tomcat. Believe me. Not for development. For a small change in the webcontent you have to redeploy the whole app - very annoying. I used that half a year. Now I use the Eclipse WTP Project for development with hot-code-replace and webdeployment. Sure it isn't perfect, but changes are instantly accessible in the webapp - and that's what one is looking for. It takes some time to figure out, how it works, but when finally configured, you won't miss it anymore! Take a look at it: http://www.eclipse.org/webtools/ Hope that helps. regards, Veit --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
