'Hot code replace' not working -- Eclipse doesn't change any code on JBoss

I did not work with JBoss but I have two suggestions.

  1. If you run your application in eclipse using the launch configuration

    Is your "Project" - "Build Automatically" flag enabled? If not, the code is not compiled and ignored t runtime.

  2. When you debug an application in remote mode, you can not change the code, but you can change the value of parameters. (I think)


I had issues in a project with Maven and Eclipse. No errors were shown, but hot code replacement was not working. I read that "Build Automatically" has to be checked. I checked this and it still didnt work. I had some errors in other projects in my build path. I believe that was the error. When i researched, I found that the we had to uncheck the "Abort build when buildpath errors". I have given the details in the link below.
