Re: A mystery: Deleted servlet is alive?!

I believe this is probably due to the fact that once a class is loaded by the class loader, it remains in memory.  Whether or not you delete the actual class, you probably won't see a difference until you restart your server.    -AMT -----Original Message----- From: A mailing list about Java Server Pages specification and reference [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Kelvin Tee Teck Keong Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2000 11:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: A mystery: Deleted servlet is alive?! I create a servlet called MyFirst.java as stated in the example and placed the bytecode in the <server root>/servlets directory. I managed to call the servlet using http://localhost:8080/servlet/MyFirst  . Everything seems to be okay.   However, when I removed the bytecode explicitly from the <server root>/servlets directory, by right, it should show me error "404, file not found". But it showed me the same result as if I did not remove the bytecode.   Where does the result came from? Am I missing something here?   Any explanation would be appreciated. Thanks.
