Automated Deployment to OC4J in Maven2

Below are example Maven2 Profiles that will deploy/undeploy a WAR to an OC4J Instance. For information on exactly what each parameter does and everything else about working with the admin_client.jar, consult your Oracle Application Server documentation.

Enjoy!

Thanks to Phillip Anderson for this work.

        <!-- The base installation directory of OC4J -->
        <oc4j.home>C:\JEE\AppServers\oc4j</oc4j.home> 

        <!-- The string needed to deploy to an OC4J Instance; This would be different for a standalone oc4j instance -->
        <oc4j.deployer>deployer:oc4j:opmn://localhost/home</oc4j.deployer> 
        
        <!-- The admin userid for OC4J -->
        <oc4j.user>oc4jadmin</oc4j.user> 
        
        <!-- The password for the OC4J admin user -->
        <oc4j.password>admin</oc4j.password>
