That setting does exist.  I played around with Tomcat/servlets a while
back and it's definitely possible.  The setting is there so that in case
you edit the .java file, the container will recompile it on the fly for
you.

What I mainly want to do is write classes for functionality that CF
doesn't provide.  Right now, <CFPOP> isn't working for me.  It's not
doing what it says it can, i.e., returning UID's for messages.  Mosh
(the CF King) turned me on to how to read mail via a telnet session.
Well, if I could do this with a Java class through which I could
activate via a tag, that'd be great.

Write your class, compile it, install it into the WEB-INF/classes or
WEB-INF/lib directory just like any other J2EE application, and then
instantiate it from CF:

<cfset myObj = createObject("java", "package.MyClass").init("hello,
world") />

Rumor has it (though I've never tried) that you can enable a couple
settings in your jrun-web.xml file to do auto compilation, so you
actually just drop you .javas in to the WEB-INF/classes directory, and
JRun will take care of compiling them whenever they change.

cheers,
