If in a soft wall room they hear you taking about "tomcat" (what kind
of a cat?), "hot-swapping", well, aeh, ... they might keep you a
little longer...

I intended to post the following questions but found the answer
myself,
finally.
I post it anyway in the hope that it helps others.
Kaspar Fischer almost posted the following:
My app takes quite some time to start up, so I don't want changes
to my
Wicket HTML or Wicket Java files to cause Tomcat to completely
"reload" the
web app. Is it (at all) possible that only the changed Wicket
HTML/Java/.properties file get reloaded and the rest (Spring
beans, etc.)
stays?
Yes. It is working for HTML, Java, and .properties files under
Eclipse with
WTP and Tomcat.
I am a little confused about the terms used in this context.
Here's how I
see; please correct me if I am wrong.
- Hotswapping means replacing a given class implementation with
another
one.
- Publishing (as seen in the server configuration panel in Eclipse
when
clicking on a Tomcat server in the "Servers" view) means shutting
a webapp
down and restarting it, hithout actually shutting Tomcat down.
I can't answer myself on this. But I guess it's more or less fine ;-)
There is also an option "Update context paths" in the Tomcat Server
configuration panel (under "Publishing"). Is it related?
It is checked in my set up but I don't know whether it is related.
Finally, *how* can I get Tomcat/Eclipse/Wicket to only reload Wicket
HTML/Java/.properties files that changed? In particular, I am
unsure whether
I have to:
- "Debug" instead of "Run" the server (i.e., click "Debug" in the
Eclipse
"Servers" view)?
With "Debug" it works.
- Should the server have "Automatically publish when resources
change"
selected (in the server's configuration panel in Eclipse)?
I have this checkbox checked.
- What Tomcat <Context> configuration must I use? I currently have
something like:
<Context docBase="myproject" path="/myproject"
reloadable="true"
source="org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.server:myproject"/>
This works for me.
- In the server's configuration panel, in tab "Modules", should I
check
"Auto reloading enabled"?
No. Otherwise Tomcat reloads the *whole* webapp.
I know that Wicket must be running in development mode.
I think so, too ;-)
Many thanks for any pointers and sharing your settings!
Kaspar, you're welcome.
