Attachments: Here there two projects: An Java web project and a Java SE Project dependent for the main web project

Description iluvtr 2014-07-15 02:15:17 UTC
Deploy on save in Netbeans is a huge time saver: make changes to a web project (redeploy), see results!, The problem is that it doesn't trigger redeploys when changes are made to a dependent Java project. Can you improve this please?

I think that the entire community will say: Thanks NB team!

can you give more details on what kind of project/server runtime you are using?

possibly attach a test project?

Here there two projects: An Java web project and a Java SE Project dependent for the main web project

Take a look to test.HelloServlet and change the variable 'yourNameHere'

My server is Tomcat but the deploy on save feature is avalaible for every Java Server
Comment 4 iluvtr 2014-07-23 19:05:50 UTC
The goal of this improvent to NB is:

Change the content of the variable 'yourNameHere' located in the dependent Java SE Project, save the file, 
(NB is redeploying automatically, no need to clean and build the dependent project or other steps) go back to browser,refresh and see results

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
