Nils, Hmm, I think the jetty hot deployer for the distro is possibly just monitoring the webapps/ directory for changes, and not any subdirs. On linux, I just unpacked the standard test.war into webapps/test and touched a few static files and a few class files inside and it didn't redeploy at all. However, as that webapp has a corresponding test.xml context configuration file, if I touch that, it will certainly redeploy the webapp.
So, looking at the configuration parameters for the hot deployer, as recursion is turned off, I don't see how modifying any of the files inside an unpacked war would cause a redeploy. Perhaps you should turn on debugging and send a log trace?
