Abstract
A system and method for using a preprocessor to determine dependencies between J2EE components. The preprocessor can analyze a running J2EE application, and look at the deployment descriptor information associated with that application. The levels of indirection within the deployed application are followed to determine the actual configuration information used to deploy the application on a first application server. This configuration information can then be parsed, communicated, or otherwise output to a system administrator or software developer, or in some embodiments directly to a second application server, and used to deploy the application on that second application server.
