Redeem yourself from hot deployments and OutOfMemoryException.
spring-loaded is an opensource classreloader and a promising alternative to
JRebel. It does not offer as many features as JRebel does, and it does not support any framework just yet. Nevertheless, its a great tool that can save the time you are waiting for that servletcontainer to restart again.
What it can do:
- add/modify/delete methods/fields/constructors
- modify annotations on types/methods/fields/constructors
- add/remove/change values in enum types
What it cant:
- support framework specific changes like Spring MVC @RequestMappings
- change log configuration on the fly
It is not getting the attention that it deserves, so give it a try.
Just download from
github already, and add the following to your JVM parameters:
java -javaagent:<pathTo>/springloaded-{VERSION}.jar -noverify
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI was experimenting with Spring Loaded and what I found out it that it also does not reload classes coming from other 'dependencies'. So if you have a maven multi module project Spring Loaded will not help you solve your reloading right now.
Looks like an interesting project though!
