NetBeans allows a WAR file to be created out of a JRuby app very easily. However deploying to GlassFish is a manual step that is performed outside the IDE. In order to provide a complete integration with GlassFish, the IDE needs to provide a menu item which would not let the user leave IDE even for this.
We are after feature freeze and cannot do UI changes. This is rather RFE, thanks for idea.
I'd like to bump up the priority of this bug for a more complete end-to-end story.
I received several requests for this feature at RailsConf 2008. I think that many Rails developers would like to keep the current "run" and "deploy" actions, for iterative development on Mongrel/Webrick/Lighttpd, but also have a "deploy" for glassfish for periodic sanity checks.
JRuby-on-Rails apps can be natively deployed on GlassFish v3 and supports iterative development. More details are available at: http://blogs.sun.com/arungupta/entry/totd_32_rails_deployment_on
Don't expect this to be ever supported.
