Yes.

No, it is *not* public by default. Such a class is *not* accessible by an
external system. Java requires that you specify "public class Simple" if
you want "Simple" to be accessed outside of that package.

No you won't because your class is not public.

Of course. You took out a *public* method that accessed the class
*from*within* and didn't leave any public interface.

Takes a few seconds. Not much of a pain at all. But I agree that
configuring hot load would make it even easier.

CF checks the timestamp on the *source* .cfm / .cfc file and if it is
newer that the version it has already compiled, it compiles it (to Java
and then compiles the .java to .class) and explicitly reloads the .class
files. It can do this because it starts the process off by accessing a
file and can do each step explicitly. This is very different from having a
running Java system and dropping a new .class file in - the JVM does not
normally look at the timestamps every time it invokes a class / method.
