EAServer invokes this target after deploying a J2EE archive, when you reconfigure or recompile J2EE modules in the Management Console, and when you run the configure or recompile utilities. Typically, the target creates and configures entities, setting properties, assigning users to roles, creating user accounts, and so forth.
To add your own tasks to a J2EE entity’s configuration,
create a user configuration file for the entity and define a target
named configure-user
.
The configure
target
can also be used in build files that are not associated with J2EE
archives. The predefined Ant build files use this target to create entities
that are not deployed from J2EE archives—see “Predefined configuration scripts”.
