    hot redeploy a single WEB-INF/classes accessed through EJBs

    msprague

      I have an extremely large project (thousands of classes) which takes forever (10-20 minutes per cycle on souped up PCs) to compile, package, copy, and deploy

      I am trying to set it up so I can change a class and have the appserver redeploy that one class and I am being stopped by something.

      here is my ear structure
      Domain.ear/
      ......Domain.jar/
      .................META-INF/
      .................com/....{SLSB classes and xml/property files}
      ......META-INF/
      ......Domain.war/
      .................META-INF/
      .................WEB-INF/
      .........................classes/....{POJOs}
      ......lib/

      fairly straight forward.

      I have have sucessfully setup an exploded helloworld.war that does what I want in the place of Domain.war. I access the classes via a two liner jsp page and the changes show up as expected.

      My class access goes through my domain SLSB into my domain.war classes. I think this is my problem, but I can't find any posts to tell me what to change so that the app server will use my new class.

      Do I have a class loader issue getting in the way on ears that doesn't impact the directly hit wars?
