Hi Linas,
I disagree with you on this point. I think this propblem will come up on
every web-server. 'Coz they check only for changes in servlet files, not in
helper class files (Venkatesh terminalogy).
Once a class is instantiated, it is loaded in memory and therefore any
changes made to the class file won't be reflected. To overcome this problem
you'll have to explicitly stop the servlet and then start it again. This way
your helper class will be instatited again.
