I would imagine that in most cases this would cause a "Not Found" error. The
JSP compiler servlet itself will usually check the last modified date of the
JSP page, to see if a recompile is necessary -- and it will not be able to
perform this check if you have removed the file.
On the other hand, could you not call this servlet with
http://localhost/servlet/x
Assuming that you've configured your servlet engine to look in the right place
(the compilation output directory of your JSP implementation)?
All of this begs the obvious question ... why would you want to delete the JSP
page file in the first place?
