RE: [Wtp-wst-dev] Server Framework and remote hosts
|
Hi Gorkem,
It's probably right that using potentially large libraries via a ssh
connection is not optimal. Then again, relying on a local set of libs while
deploying to a remote server instance brings the added headache of having to
make sure you use the correct versions of all libs (i.e. have identical
server install locally somewhere).
I think I will try to add support for ssh (if I have some more time) and see
how my users get on with it.
Thank you once again,
-- Bruno

Hi,
With generic server framework, it is possible to run and deploy to a
remote server but it is not possible to use a remote server's binaries
as part of the build path. The properties you mention are usually used
for defining the binaries for build path and I am not sure if it is
worth the penalty to use libraries over an ssh connection.
I believe the server adapters we ship with WTP do not have that support
but there are commercial products that come with such adapters. As for
running servers, every server has its own mechanism for that for
instance some servers provide a daemon process that can start/stop a
server but they are server specific.
I hope this helps.
