Tapestry Production Mode

Hi,

Is there any way in  tapestry 5.4 (*production mode)  *where-in, I can fire
the tapestry compiling chain again ( so that my less file are compiled
again).

I am able to get this done in *development *mode, by adding a request
filter(which picks my dynamic changes on the file), by adding my
RequestHandler in AppModule class:-

public void contributeRequestHandler(
   OrderedConfiguration<RequestFilter> configuration) {
   configuration.addInstance("XYZRequestFilter",
   XYZRequestFilter.class, "before:*");
   }


But the same approach, doesn't work in production mode( since the caching
mechanism is different).

Any idea/suggestions would be of great help.


Regards,
Akshay

You could take the quick and dirty way and have a tapestry filter redirect
to the correct asset paths.

We use this at work for things like rich text editors that attempts to load
stuff relative to the first js file loaded.
