Errai Dev Mode not refreshing content

[cristianmiranda]

Hi guys,

     I've implemented JBoss Launcher (New Development Mode Setup in Errai 3.0 Milestone 2 | Errai Developer Blog | Planet JBoss Community) in my Errai 2.4.2.Final application but I can't see client-side changes reflected when I refresh my browser, I always have to re run the application to see them applied.

     Here is my pom.xml: http://pastebin.com/Ujw1wSnB  ... I'm using jboss7 profile.

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

I am using 2.4.2 - not with the new development mode, but with jetty - and also cannot see client changes when I refresh.

This makes developing painfully slow.

Hi Cristian,

Relating to the discussion we had on IRC, I checked out the errai-ui-i18n-demo and I managed to fix the Dev Mode refreshing in that project.

Can you please try adding this to your pom in the build section:

    <resources>
      <resource>
        <directory>src/main/java</directory>
      </resource>
    </resources>

Then do an "Maven" > "Update Project" in Eclipse.

This gets Eclipse to copy java source files to src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes, which seems to be necessary for Dev Mode to update.

Please let me know if this works for you.

Cheers.

I have the same issue with my project, which is based on the errai-tutorial demo for 3.0-SNAPSHOT. My pom already has the entry, but I cannot refresh tto see changes:

<build>
    <finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
    <outputDirectory>src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/classes</outputDirectory>


    <resources>
      <resource>
        <directory>src/main/java</directory>
      </resource>
      <resource>
        <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
      </resource>
    </resources>

I had the same problem I had to do a mvn compile to see the changes

[cristianmiranda]

I have the same in my pom.xml. Are you using Eclipse or Intellij IDEA?

I just did mvn clean complie. It downloaded a lot of stuff and compiled successfully, but still not refreshing to see changes.
