Update or modify deployed WAR file

843840Dec 10 2002 — edited Jul 13 2008

Suppose I use a Server that does not expand WAR files (or is configured not to expand war files)

How can one dynamically update or add a file inside the webapp WAR file? (a properties or XML file)

I could try to create a new, temporary WAR file using java.util.zip.*, and try to copy it over the main one at the end (but that is not very desirable ...)

So I hope there is a better design pattern/idea/solution for how to do this

Thank you for your time and your input,

Liviu
