Fixed spelling error in Jira Issue Summary.
> Enable dynamic reloading of properties
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: FOR-737
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-737
> Project: Forrest
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Core operations
> Reporter: Ross Gardler
> Priority: Minor
>
> Since properties will no longer need to be defined in the forrest.xconf file
> it will be possible to enable dynamic reloading of properties at runtime.
> All we need to do is keep a check of when the properties file was last loaded
> and check this against the last modified time of the properties file. When
> necessary reload.
> This should be configurable though as it has implications on performance
> since the check will be made every time an property value is retreived.
> I suggest the following options:
> - always check and reload when the file changes
> - only check and reload when a property value is not currently defined
> - only check and reload every X minutes (should above to options should apply
> here too)
> - never check and reload
> The initial settings for this reload option can be set in the properties file
> itself and applied when it is loaded/reloaded. Of course, this means if it is
> set to "never check and reload" a restart will be required to have changes
> take effect. Therefore this setting is for production servers only.
