Portlet Factory, Version 6.1.2
Deployment for development
IBM® WebSphere Portlet Factory applications are simply a coordinated set of files that are used to regenerate applications at design or deployment-time. Like any development effort, the WebSphere Portlet Factory project and application files should be placed under a source control system (for example, CVS, SourceSafe, and Rational® ClearCase®). Placing these files under source control allows you to version them and protect them from loss. Placing files under source control consists of the following activities.
- Locating and laying out a project for source control management.
- Deciding what artifacts to version.
- Managing code for distribution.
Parent topic: Overview: deployment
- Management of code for distribution
Like most portlets, web applications and widgets, WebSphere Portlet Factory applications are distributed (or deployed) as WARs.
- Locating and laying-out a project for source control management
You can use two basic approaches when translating this project structure to source control.
- Versioning artifacts
If you want the ability to recreate the application over the long term, it is important to capture all of the artifacts used by the project.
