Hi, I've been having a strange problem with the virgo tooling . Whenever I update static resources( javascript and css), the tooling says something like "Publishing to virgo server...." in the eclipse progress bar, and the "servers" view shows the bundle is refreshing. However,after all, the updated file is not copied to the "work" directory of virgo. I used to solve this by using a script to copy the resource folder to the 'work' dir when the deploy path was fixed for every bundle. But now, the paths are dynamic, I have to redeply the whole bundle every time i make a change.

I am using VTS 3.6.0.M2, Tooling :
Eclipse Virgo Tools 1.0.1.201302270038-RELEASE org.eclipse.virgo.ide.feature.feature.group Eclipse Virgo

Thanks.

Hi,

We do support Tomcat's context functionality.
More info can be found in the documentation [1].

Hey,

I'm having the same problem, not refreshing the static resources until a manual redeploy. The Virgo version I'm currently using is 3.6.2. I've already set the "Automatically publish when resources change" correct.

If I missed out of a additional configuration, please let me know.

Thanks,
Jan

Hi,

I had similar issues with non non class-file resources.

In my experience, the best approach consists in disabling auto-publish completely.

In this way, Virgo Tools will perform auto-publish when you start the server, but any subsequent change executed during development will not be published automatically.

For Java sources, the JVM will help you here: in debug mode the JVM will replace the class definition when you build, provided that the class "interface" is not changed. If the JVM fails to do the bytecode replacement because you added a method, changed a signature, etc, you can manually perform a publish via CTRL-ALT-P or the context menu. To the contrary if you keep auto-publish enabled and publish on build or on save, you'll have the bundle redeployed any time a trivial class file change is performed, which results in a waste of time.

Also, I am using this approach in combination with a little eclipse plug-in I wrote that allows me to use the Virgo Tools with Eclipse PDE. In this way I use PDE for development, and Virgo Tools just for publishing artefacts and starting the server.

Hi Jay,

Do you have the same problem using PAR and PLAN. Currently in my development environment I'm using PAR to avoid this problem.

Thanks for the info GianMaria I will try your plug-in !
