[Exist-open] Modifying Interactive Client

[Adiarto P. <ad...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I am attempting to write a quick "find" function in eXist's interactive client
(when viewing documents);

My goal is after I am done with this, I would like to deploy and my modified GUI
client on an existing eXist instance (without migrating data from older eXist to
newly-built one)

Is this possible? Is the interactive client "integrated" into the eXist core or
is it "stand-alone" inside eXist ?
(Do I need to re-deploy the whole database or can I just swap some files in
order to make my modified GUI client works?)

I am running eXist as a servlet inside Apache Tomcat; thus the interactive
client is invoked using java -jar start.jar client


Thank you,

Adi
