Nothing.  Since the jar is in tomcat/lib, it's handled by the common class 
loader, so you have to restart Tomcat to get the updated jar recognized.  If 
the jar were in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory, you could restart just that 
one webapp.

Thanks, Chuck.

And is there a setting to have Tomcat automatically restarted when jar changes 
under tomcat/lib?
