Dennis Lundberg closed MWAR-175.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Bug

There is a goal for this already. Simply run:

{noformat}
mvn war:exploded
{noformat}

>          Issue Type: Wish

>            Reporter: Chei
>            Priority: Minor

> Splitting the collecting and compressing of required project files would speed up the development cycle when Tomcat is configured to read the uncompressed webapp files from /target.
> I have the following configuration in apache-tomcat-6.0.18\conf\Catalina\localhost\helloworld.xml: <Context path="/helloworld" docBase="d:\dev\ helloworld\target\ helloworld"
> What I regulary do is change the code and then invoke the maven:package to make the changes visible in Tomcat. Having the war file repackaged is not necessary for this, but as far as I know currently there is no way to update the contents of d:\dev\ helloworld\target\ helloworld without the lengthy process of compressing the war file.
> I think it would make sense to introduce a separate target for copying all the required files without invoking a compression on them.
