1 - http://myserver/my-web-app/admin/reload.do reloads ApplicationResources & I think struts-config. If I haven't recompiled any classes it works for me. On Tomcat it goes wonky if I've re-compiled so I have to restart. This is if thoe entries for admin unctions are in your struts-config.xml. They can be copied from the struts-blank webapp.
2 - webappcabaret & others (WantJava) effectively give you a safe JVM. They give you 1 web-app & your own Servlet context so you are safe to deploy classes etc. Presumabaly with Unix security they can protect disk files outside you directory tree & they must give each context it's own JVM - I get a feeling it might me a 'virtual' JVM. I recall they had the details on their site. You can no longer get this stuff free - but the rates aren't huge. I recall webappcabaret won't let a pool of people share a site - you have to each pay. I deployed a trial system on WantJava 18 months ago & they were fine. This was servlets/jsp & a JDBC database (Maybe oracle). Keith. --- "John M.
