Rife: reloading impls
Rife is web framework which does more than your usual framework. After reading a little about Rife around the web, I decided to test drive it. The amazing thing I’ve found is the way it re-compiles your java files even at runtime so the build cycle is eliminated. Just modify a few files and test it out!. Here’s my check list for dev time reloading
- Can refresh xml files which are used to configure the environment - Yes
- Can it refresh resources/templates - Yes
- Lastly Java files
- Elements / Java classes responsible for the template population - Yes
- Model Java files; POJOs representing the model - No (I wasn’t able to have these compiled automatically. Its possible that I missed some option or did not have the java files in the correct location. It looks like rife only reloads Element java files)
Looks pretty neat IMO. I’ll blog a bit more about Rife as and when I try it out.
