Peter/Jason,
Thanks for your responses. I got the "reload" working in my Ant script.
Now the only remaining hurdle I have is to get my service JAR file
uploaded to my Axis server, and I want to do this remotely. I'm
currently looking into the commons projects "httpclient" and
"fileupload" to accomplish this.
Does anyone have any recommendations as to how to get the
service class files (or JAR) uploaded to the Axis server remotely?
Steve
