Re: V3 redeploy does not work

Hi,

I've reverted the functionality in redeploy command. However, the
syntax is a bit different. Instead of name parameter as the operand,
--name is now a required option. The syntax is very similiar to deploy
command.

*asadmin redeploy --name <appname> [--virtualservers <viratualservers>]
[--contextroot <contextroot>] [--precompilejsp=false] [<path or filename>]*

If path (operand) is not specified and the application is previously
deployed from a directory, then path is retrieved from domain.xml. If
application is previously deployed from a file, then path is a required
parameter/operand.

I've also added deploydir command. This command is deprecated in v3, so
please use "deploy ... <directory>" instead.

The V3AdminCommands
<http://wiki.glassfish.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=V3AdminCommands> page has
been updated with these changes/additions.

Regards,
Jane
