Yes. Applications can be deployed without packaging in an EAR, WAR, or JAR file by specifying the path to the directory structure containing the application instead of specifying the full path to the packaged deployment file. The directory being used must match the directory structure required as per the application component you are deploying. For example, if you are deploying a Web application, the directory structure must conform to the standard directory structure used by the WAR file mechanism. The deployment of applications from directories is a useful feature during application development and testing. It alleviates the overhead of repackaging and redeploying an application when code is being frequently changed. 5.0 Other Resources 5.1 Oracle Information http://www.oracle.com 5.2 J2EE Information http://www.javasoft.com/j2ee http://www.theserverside.
