Hot deploy with WebLogic server?

java deployment weblogic

I have an enterprise application running on a WebLogic server.

When I modify any Java class, I have to build the .ear file and deploy to the server every time. Even for a small modification, I need to build the whole application and deploy to the server. The server is taking around 10 minutes to do this.

Is there any other way to do this?

When I was working with Tomcat, we used to update the .class files directly in the webapps project folder so that we didn't need to re-build the entire application.
