Where is the class file for the static variable located? All classes in the webapp directory (or .war file) should be lost, since Tomcat creates a new classloader for the redeployment. If the class in question came out of a higher-level library, it won't be affected. Also, if an object loaded from a higher-level library is hanging on to references to webapp objects (a really bad design), you may still see values from the old deployment. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
