the reload command only tells maverick to reload maverick.xml. basically to refresh its mappings. you use the feature so that if you change maverick.xml you don't need to restart the webapp. it should also reload all stylesheets referenced in maverick.xml (this was working the last time I tried it).
for working on stylesheets, though, i generally found it more useful to set template-caching to disabled on the XSLTransformFactory: <transform-factory type="xslt" provider="org.infohazard.maverick.transform.XSLTransformFactory"> <default-output-type value="text/html"/> <template-caching value="disabled"/> <uri-resolver value=""/> </transform-factory> This will cause maverick to not cache stylesheets at all so as soon as you edit them you will see the changes--note this will destroy performance, so its great on a dev server, horrible on a live server. --jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Thompson, Kris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, July 02, 2003 12:19 PM Subject: RE: [Mav-user] Reload command in web.xml Sorry I don't have an answer for this but I would like to ask why would one want to use this feature anyway?
