Developing in a team mode
Because there can be multiple users who work on the development of Java™ API-based code, there might be a need to develop and test the code in a team environment.
During the development and unit testing of the Java API-based code, the document store can be used as the repository of the classes. After the classes are developed and unit tested, a compressed file can be built and deployed through the user.jar mechanism.
The custom and user JAR mechanism requires that you restart IBM® Product Master to pick up the new changes in the JAR. However, when document store based approach is used, you can clear the script cache to reload the new classes in the document store.
