Quarkus Dev Mode: xml resources seems ignored

[aldettinger]

Describe the bug

I face a situation where changing an xml resources should trigger a quarkus dev restart while it's not the case.

Expected behavior

I would expected the dev mode to restart the service.

Actual behavior

The service is not restarted.

To Reproduce

git clone git@github.com:aldettinger/quarkus-devmode-restdsl-not-reloaded-reproducer.git
mvn quarkus:dev
http :8080/steps (output STEP 1 => ok)
In rests.xml, change "STEP 1" to "STEP 2" and save
http :8080/steps (output STEP 1 => ko)

Sometimes, no change is detected.
Sometimes, it displays "Files changed but restart not needed - notified extensions".
While any change in application.properties make the application reloaded which is great.

Is is possible that an xml resource always trigger reload like an application.properties file ? Via configuration ? Via an extension that would mark this file as restartNeeded ?

The closest issue I found is #16350, but not sure there is a link.

Have you tried https://quarkus.io/guides/maven-tooling#quarkus-live-reload-live-reload-config_quarkus.live-reload.watched-resources ?

Many thanks @famod , it works like a charm to set it via configuration 👍
Now, I wonder what would be the correct way to handle this from an extension, maybe having an extension adding configuration is ok.

Glad it worked for you.

For extensions you should have a look at LiveReloadBuildItem. There should be plenty examples in the Quarkus code base.
