Hi,

Sorry to come back to an old thread, but I was wondering which
application server is able to read directly from war, without
extracting it when deploying a web application? Are Tomcat or Jetty
able to do that? Where can I find out about this feature?

Cheers,

I have no real experience, but an application server is not obligated to extract the war instead of 
reading it directly. I have worked recently with Oracle Application Server, but I believe that 
extracts the war as well.

How to find out about the feature? Really don't know. It is an implementation detail you shouldn't 
be caring about.. ;-)

Geert
