Where do/would you let you your java developers develop the code for a WAS application?
We currently have TS doing vitalization with Websphere. Basically pointing the websphere website application package (.ear file) to the WA of TS.
This enables our content contributors to see the results of there changes
I am thinking of letting are java developers edit the java and JSP files right on TS. If they need to compile, they could do that outside of TS and then just drop the class files in to TS and restart the WAS App.
What do you think? (We are not doing EJB’s)
The reason I ask is how much will this interfere with out content contributors?
I don’t want to avoid maintaining another set of code on our TS Dev server.
And strategies, white papers, best practices would be much appreciated.
