Auto-reloading WAR in Jetty standalone

问题:

I have a WAR deployed to Jetty 9.0.0.M3. I am trying to figure out what I need to set in my context in order to be able to have it reloaded every time I upload an updated war file (without having to restart Jetty).

I had a look at the docs, but I'm afraid I couldn't find what I was looking for. I only know how to do this with the embedded Jetty Maven plugin, but not with the standalone.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

The key is in the deployer. You need to wire up the deployment manager functionality and have it manage the starting of the webapp.

http://git.eclipse.org/c/jetty/org.eclipse.jetty.project.git/tree/jetty-deploy/src/main/java/org/eclipse/jetty/deploy/providers/WebAppProvider.java

The jetty xml files are effectively a thin skin over java so look the following xml file which is what jetty uses for the traditional webapp startup of our distribution.

http://git.eclipse.org/c/jetty/org.eclipse.jetty.project.git/tree/jetty-deploy/src/main/config/etc/jetty-deploy.xml

This ought to get you fixed up.
