I understand that the WTP is going to support packaging/deploying of
WARs and EARs to various app-servers at some stage (correct me if i'm
wrong)...is the plan to support these operations in headless mode? eg
for automated build/test processes?
Also, will the deployment to the app-server involve packaging first?
ie, if i deploy an EAR project to an app-server, will this be
equivalently to manually (within the IDE) packaging the EAR and then
deploying the EAR to the app-server?
thanks,
chris.

Hello,
Export is already available -- you can right click on a J2EE project,
select "Export > [type]" and create deployable archives. These wizards use
generic, reusable WTP Operations which could be run in headless. I'm not
sure that there's a formal plan to make these available as headless
operations, but if someone out there wanted to write Ant Tasks that called
into these operations, that might provide the kind of capability you're
looking for. This might be worth opening an enhancement request against the
WTP Bugzilla.
The development-time deployment depends on the server that you're using.
Some servers support fragmented EARs on disk, while others do not. Some
servers allow you to run on disk from a J2EE-spec compliant layout, while
others may require that the resources be archived appropriately. When
end-users are developing, the J2EE/Server components will handle these
concerns as transparently as possible so that users will not need to be
concerned over the details of packaging.
Kind Regards,
Michael D. Elder
