        Packaging Files for Deployment<\/h2><\/span>\n

        Using Archived Files<\/h3><\/span>\n

        * Packaged with jar utility with different types of file extensions:
        \n– EJBs and client archives: .jar
        \n– Web app: .war
        \n– Resource adapter: .rar
        \n– Enterprise app: .ear
        \n– Web services: .war or .jar (Java or EJB) then .ear
        \n– Java EE libraries: .ear or standard JEE mdoule
        \n– Client applications and optional packages: .jar
        \n* Deployment plan<\/p>\n

        Using Exploded Archive Directories<\/h3><\/span>\n

        * Use exploded archive directories when you want to do:
        \n– partial updates of modules.
        \n– periodical update of static files.
        \n– system I\/O on the archive files.<\/p>\n

        Deploy without Deployment Descriptors<\/h3><\/span>\n

        * If no WEB-INF\/web.xml, then directory name should have .war suffix.
        \n* If no META-INF\/application.xml, then
        \n– directory name should have .ear suffix.
        \n– modules are deployed in the order of File.listFiles() method.<\/p>\n

        Default Deployment Name<\/h3><\/span>\n

        * myear.ear -> myear
        \n* Exploded directory -> directory name<\/p>\n

        Install Root Directory<\/h3><\/span>\n
        \"\"<\/a><\/h6><\/span>\n

        * Example:<\/p>\n

        \r\nmkdir c:\\deployments\\production\r\nmkdir c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\r\nmkdir c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\r\nmkdir c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\app\r\nmkdir c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\plan\r\n# Other plan files\r\nmkdir c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\plan1\r\nmkdir c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\plan2\r\ncp c:\\downloads\\myApplication.ear c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\app\r\n# or exploded form\r\ncp -r c:\\downloads\\myApplication c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\app\r\n# Default plan\r\ncp c:\\downloads\\myApplicationPlans\\plan.xml c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\plan\r\n# If not default plan directory, then must specify plan1 or plan2 directory in config.xml\r\ncp c:\\downloads\\myApplicationPlans\\plan1.xml c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\plan1\r\ncp c:\\downloads\\myApplicationPlans\\plan2.xml c:\\deployments\\production\\myApplication\\91Beta\\plan2\r\n<\/pre>\n
        FastSwap Deployment<\/h2><\/span>\n
        * JEE 5 introduced dynamic class redefinition<\/em>:
        \n– redefine classes at run time without disturbing running applications.
        \n– requires shape of class remains identical.
        \n* WebLogic FastSwap removes the restriction of identical class shape.<\/p>\n
        FastSwap restrictions<\/h3><\/span>\n
        * Available in Dev mode only.
        \n* Supports following in exploded directories only (not archives):
        \n– POJOs (jars)
        \n– wars
        \n– ears
        \n* See         here<\/a> for more details.<\/p>\n
        To Enable<\/h3><\/span>\n
        * Add to weblogic-application.xml (enterprise app) or weblogic.xml (web app) file:<\/p>\n
        \r\n\r\n\ttrue<\/enabled>\r\n<\/fast-swap>\r\n<\/pre>\n
