To reflect changes in the ADF Deployed app on Stand alone weblogic server (11.1.1.5)

I feel it is painfull task to deploy the monstrous application for **minor changes**.

Though I know that I can use hudson/CI to automate the boring deployment process(as developer this is what I feel), our team yet to sponsor good amount of time for Hudson hands on.


So we started using the following copy paste approach ( a true developer approach) to reflect the changes on the server.


Locally we generate the jar files for which changes available. We also make sure all the dependent libraries are in sync with the latest changes.

These are the locations with respect to Jdeveloper 11.1.1.5 based stand alone server.

For UI changes:
1) Go to system_folder: In Windows Run --> %Appdata% --> Jdeveloper --> system xxx folder 
2) cd DomainName/servers/ServerName/tmp/_WL_user/AppliactionName/z88prt/war/WEB-INF/lib
3) replace the ui jar and dependent jars you wish to overwrite.
4) restart the server


For UI Model/Model changes:
1) Go to system_folder: In Windows Run --> %Appdata% --> Jdeveloper --> system xxx folder 
2) cd DomainName/servers/ServerName/tmp/_WL_user/AppliactionName/z88prt/hvo6ly/APP-INF/lib
3) replace the model/uiModel jar and dependent jars you wish to overwrite.
4) restart the server


However, If there are changes to application files (say, adf-config.xml) I have to go through the complete deployment process to see the changes.
Hope it helps.


Thanks,
