You'll need an expert on classloading in cocoon to answer that I think. As far as I know, it's not possible currently to have cocoon reload a class without restarting cocoon. Actually I should say I've never seen that ability, it may well be there.
Setting tomcat to reload the context works well for me in development - doesn't take horribly long (~30 seconds i think?). I think the fact that tomcat is in JBoss is what's making it hard. I was just looking at JBoss again last night and saw that 3.x has some ability to reload specific resources?
