Thanks again. More useful information, Craig. I am trying to figure out a good way to do a Registry.java class without messing up garbage collection. I was hoping to use finalize() to keep track outside of the garbage collection loop of live classes, but have discovered, I think, that only classes with "new" in their creation have their finalize() method called during garbage collection.
Do you have any ideas on a good hook for a registry on garbage collection and live classes which does not inhibit garbage collection? Callback? Anyone else with an idea on that?

While the "hot deploy" part of the hot deploy would not be utilized in this case, the dependency injection equivalent would, and without the xml configuration being required. So, there seems to be some, if not a considerable, gain. Yes? Jack -- "You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep." ~Native Proverb~ "Each man is good in His sight.
