i have said this before on the list.
You really should look for an integrated solution for this in a IDE
For example use the Tomcat plugin or the Jetty Launcher in eclipse for debugging youre wicket application. This will gain you so much time.. (no constant deploy, and if you oinly change (save/compile) methods then
you even don't have to restart tomcat/jetty.

This may be off-topic and really belong on some Tomcat list, but if anyone here has a suggestion, please let me know.

I'm doing an awful lot of update-compile-deploy cycles as I try to learn Wicket, and Tomcat is giving me grief. Usually when I drop a WAR file in Tomcat's webapps directory, the expanded folder is removed and replaced with the new version. On my new 3.0 GHz laptop with 1 GB memory, this is quite quick. For some reason this doesn't happen with my Wicket application. Tomcat removes everything in the folder except for lib/wicket-1.1-b3.jar. Then it doesn't expand the WAR file. While Tomcat is running, I can't even remove this file manually. I have to shut down Tomcat before I can test my work.

This happens whether I manually copy the file, have Ant copy it, or let Tomct's manager take care of it.

Does anyone know why this happens, or even better, have a suggestion for how to fix it? Maybe I'll be able to test with Jetty, but for most of my webapps, a drop into Tomcat is close to instant gratification. By the time I switch to the browser and refresh the page, the application is running. Last I tried it, Jetty was not as quick.

Please let me know what you think,
