So to clarify - what's the current situation if I update the snippet file - how do you determine which classes need reloaded? You mentioned that you *could* monitor lib/ext but presumably that doesn't happen currently. Where do I specify which classes my service needs and how are they reloaded? > forget the SAR *****packaging***** madness for now.

Once I've tried it out I should get that warm glow for a while... I think the stuff about where my service classes should go in order to be dynamically reloaded should clinch it... As far as I can see all the current services all have classpaths which point to files which are exclusively in lib/ext. Butt-fucking flies is pretty clear and sounds like a useful French phrase to know - what is the original "enculer des mouches" or something like that?? I know the Chinese would say "taking trousers down to fart" which is equally appropriate and is a bit less vulgar :). Luke. -- Luke Taylor. Monkey Machine Ltd.
