I've created a simple ant task to automate the reload. Use it if you like.

RE: Reloadable Class

2001-12-07 Thread Chris Birch


Jeff,

As you're are using Tomcat4 you can reload a web apps context using the
built-in Tomcat management web app.

If your web-apps context is /myWebApp/

Simply enter http://localhost:8080/manager/reload?path=/myWebApp

This should return a simple string that tells you your context has been
reloaded and is usually much quicker than restarting.

The manager app is protected, so you must have a user who can log in with a
manager role.  If you are using the simple memory realm authentication then
update $TOMAT_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml and add:



For more information on the manager app see:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/manager-howto.html

After making code changes building/deploying with ant to test, I always use
this method as I often have a couple of struts web-apps in my Tomcat server.

Regards,
Chris.

Keith,

Well... I had hoped that doing a admin/reload.do would do what I wanted but
it doesn't seem to.

This just seems to reload the mappings without loading the new class files.

Here is an example:

* I have my web-app running and I'm testing.
* Close the browser window (or not)
* I make a change to an Action class.
* I compile it and move it to the correct
...webapps\struts-play\WEB-INF\classes... directory
* Open a browser window and do localhost:8080/my-app/admin/reload.do
* Go back to my app and test the change.

Problem:  The old code is still being used.

However, if I:

* Run shutdown.bat on Catalina (Tomcat 4) and then run startup.bat
* Test my change.

New code is used.

I'd like to avoid the Catalina up and down maneuver to make my changes "go
live."  (It seems to me that reload.do should do that but I guess the only
the mappings get reloaded, the actual classes don't get reloaded.)

2001-12-07 Thread Keith Bacon


Jeff,
If your web-app is 

localhost:8080/my-app/
localhost:8080/my-app/admin/reolad.do
causes your struts-config to be reloaded by the
ActionServlet - is that what you want?

RE: Reloadable Class

2001-12-06 Thread Knee, Jeff


All,

For me (with Tomcat4), this doesn't seem to help... I was thinking that this
was because the _ActionServlet_ wasn't new... just my _Action_ classes.

Is there a way to get the ActionServlet to "reset" without restarting
Tomcat?

In your Tomcat config file - is the reloadble attribute set to true for your
webapp? (In Tomcat 3.x this will be in the server.xml file in the conf
directory)
