Abstract
A development-oriented directory structure that can be used with an application server and which solves a number of the problems associated with traditional EnterpriseArchive (EAR) files, comprising: a source folder that stores source files for use with or as part of a software application; an output folder that stores compiled files for use with or as part of said software application; and, wherein said source folder and said output folder output folder form a split directory for use in deploying said software application.
Claims30
A system for organization of files during a software development process, comprising:
- a source folder that stores source files for use with or as part of a software application;
- an output folder that stores compiled files for use with or as part of said software application;
- and,
- wherein said source folder and said output folder output folder form a split directory for use in deploying said software application.
A method for organizing and using source and output files during a software development process, comprising the steps of:
- providing a source folder that stores source files for use with or as part of a software application;
- providing an output folder that stores compiled files for use with or as part of said software application;
- recognizing said output folder and the contents stored therein as being part of a split directory for use in deploying said software application;
- and,
- identifying both said source folder and said output folder as a split directory for use in deploying the application.
A computer readable medium including instructions stored thereon which when executed cause the computer to perform the steps of:
- providing a source folder that stores source files for use with or as part of a software application;
- providing an output folder that stores compiled files for use with or as part of said software application;
- recognizing said output folder and the contents stored therein as being part of a split directory for use in deploying said software application;
- and,
- identifying both said source folder and said output folder as a split directory for use in deploying the application.
