Publish on Server not usefull for dynamic web applcations [message #194328]

Suppose you build a web application that creates files in the /web dir
dynamically...
Each time you change code the app will be republished:

this means that all the dynamical created files/dirs are deleted...
And probable you have a database that refers to these files

-> conclusion your published application is out of sync.

: Solution: Make it able to tag some dirs in your application
ass 'dynamic' such that a republish does not delete files
from that directory.

What is the question? I don't see you asking anything here, just making
statements...

Remove the ns_ from if replying by e-mail (but keep posts in the
newsgroups if possible).

I ran into the same problem. What I did was move those files (images)
into their own directory structure, still in the webapp directory but
separate from the application. So a republish of the application does
not touch those files:

webapp
- app
-- WebRoot
-- etc
- files
-- app
--- image files
