Thank you for your response. I'm actually using BeanShell for doing most of this stuff, as it provides reloadClasses(), wich allows a very fast reloading of every change (anyway, changes in code which is actually in use are not propagated, but this is an expected issue). I'll have a glance to the link you provide.
One more question: is there a way to call a function similar to reloadClasses in Clojure? If so, it would be my solution.
