Re: Run a war/set of wars released in internal repo
Sorry taking so long to respond but I have several things happening. I love
the idea of removing Maven from the equation (Though I'd love to also have a
Maven solution). I never thought of self-executable wars with
Jetty/Winstone. Can you give me an example of the packaging for this? Is it
a simple jar project? Can the jar/war also be deployed inside a servlet
container? I can look up the specifics but if you could give a simple
example? I'm thinking this requires some sort of inlining of Jetty/Winstone
classes which would require either Assembly or OneJar support. Thanx for the
tip!

I think Kohsuke was one of the first to implement it - his blog post
on it should help:
