Spring auto deployment suppression

[balmaceda]

Hi All

I have a process resource bundled in a Spring web application (on the classpath) that I have configured to be deployed automatically. Unfortunately it is deploying a new version each time the application itself is redeployed.
If I remember correctly the documentation states that auto-deployment will first check to see if the resource has changed before redeploying as a different version. It seems to me that the fact that the application server (JBoss 7) extracts the files into a temporary folder for deployment causes Activiti to think that the resource has changed.
Is there any way I can suppress this behaviour while still packaging the resources with my application? Ideally Activity would load new process definitions but leave existing ones as they are.

Thanks
Martin

Is there some way I can maybe handle this manually?

Solved it by creating my own SpringProcessEngineConfiguration

I really this the default spring conf class should have an option to identify resources only by classnames and not by the absolute path -that way it wont be a problem on containers that deploy to temporary folders

I'm not sure if that solution won't create 'false positives'. On what would you want to check to make sure it is a new deployment?

Please send tutorial or sample program of auto deployment. I am unable to deploy with auto-deploy.

Hi Suresh,

Here you can find jUnit test for Spring auto deploy.
