double click the server and inthe setting be sure that its getting published when a resource change

also there is a workaround to force hot redeployment by creating file called XXX.dodeploy and replace XXX by your app name.

Then double click the server and check to enable deployment as compressed file.

save and try

The force hot redeployment with .dodeploy is what right click on a module and choosing Restart will do for you.

In latest builds we also have a field on the server editor where you can say which files you want to always trigger a restart.

its default to .*.jar$ but you can set it to .jar$|.class$ and it will force restart on every .jar or .class change.

but not on xhtml since it does not match the regular expression.

i am using 7.1 and i dont find such feature.

May be it will be available soon in next releases.

In our nightly builds of JBoss Tools 3.3 and upcoming beta1 release.

Its in the server editor of our AS server adpters.

Is there a way to publish updated jsp without loosing the session?
