There are files which changing should cause WebApp redeploy on the next Run/Run in Debugger action: 1) WEB-INF/web.xml 2) localization - anywhere bundle.properties bundle_*.properties 3) Struts - in WEB-INF struts-config.xml tiles-defs.xml validation.xml validator-rules.xml 4) Faces WEB-INF/faces-config.xml
Any problem with WEB-INF/*.xml? I will do that unless anybody objects.
I found that WEB-INF/**.xml already triggers reload. .properties triggers "classesChanged" if it is in WEB-INF/classes. Is it really needed to detect it outside of classpath? If yes then reopen.
Verified.
