Eclipse Virgo's auto deploy takes long time when many files [message #902543]

Hi all, I am using eclipse and the latest VTS. in a deployed(through eclipse) application, if i change a file of a bundle with many files, it takes a long time to restart that bundle. for example, if i am moifying a javascript from a deployed bundle and save it, i expect to refresh the browser(maybe clear browser cache as well) and immediately see the changes, however, virgo first copies the ALL files from the bundle to the /stage directory which is then copied into /work dir. This makes refreshing the bundle very slow hence making web app developments very inconvinient.

Is it possible to make VTS deploy my bundles in my eclipse workspace directly? something like tomcat's 'docbase'?
am i missing some configurations?

Thanks all in advance.

Virgo doesn't support any other kinds of deployment from the tooling to avoid the overhead of copying, so I think the only solution would be to refactor your bundle into more than one bundle to make them smaller and easier to update. (You may be interested in snaps for modularising web apps.)

Hope that helps!
