Yeah, maybe, Milt.
Why don't you ask the developers, then? I actually believe that all things
I said in those mails about reloading in TC3.x and TC4 are correct.
And the reason for me having to restart every time is that I basically
have made a "server" running "on top of tomcat", and there's basically
only 3 servlets running, but with lots of helper classes and stuff around.
The reason for _always_ getting a ClassCastException is that I have all my
user information stored in a User object. This won't ever reload (that is,
serialize/deserialize, or in some other way being "cast" over to the new
classloader), and when i retrieve it from the HttpSession, it's _always_
ClassCastException'ing.
I'm not the only one making such "complicated" apps. The exact same story
about the "User object" have been mentioned a couple of times on this
list.
And that's how it is.
