We are upgrading from JBoss 4.2.3 to JBoss 7.1.0 for our web projects. When developing in MyEclipse 8 with JBoss 4.2.3, if we make a minor code change, for example adding a line in a method, the change is hot deployed and works very well. We can simply refresh the webpage to see our changes. Redeployment is usually not necessary unless we changed method signature.

But on MyEclipse 10 with JBoss 7.1.0, every code change causes JBoss to redeploy the entire war archive, thus losing session and login. This is not desirable as we have to re-login and go through pages to see changes. Is this expected behavior? Are there settings in JBoss or MyEclipse that can restore the old behavior?

Did you try the development release of MyEclipse?

This fixed it for me.
