Sri:
But isnt that specific to JVM implementation of tomcat.?
Does the auto-reloading of class files work if u use a servlet engine
extension to a typical web server? e.g. You need to restart the Http task
of Lotus Domino Server if u are using it as a web server.

Please respond to "A

With the Servlet 2.2 spec , changes in class files are detected
automatically and the servlet engine reloads them without having to be
restarted . The latest version of Tomcat does this. I have personal
knowledge of that. Caveat:
The classes should not be in the classpath used by tomcat iteself.They
should be in the "context" class directory.
Library jar files are also not re-loaded ( even when present in the
"contect" lib directory.)
Other than above two caveat , it works on the fly.
