"Update resources" option missing in IntelliJ IDEA
intellij-idea, java, tomcat
Solution
All you have to do is deploy the exploded artifacts instead of the .ear/.war. Go back into the Run/Debug Configurations in the deployment tab and change the artifact that your deploying and pick the one that ends with :exploded
Problem
I am using tomcat 7 for developing a java web application. Running tomcat in the debug mode, I do not have options to "Update resources" and "Update classes and resources" on the "Update" menu. There are only "Hot Swap classes", "Redeploy" and "Restart Server". Please, could you help find them? Thanks a lot in advance! It would save me a lot of time..
