In the server.xml file that's in the conf directory, there's a line that
looks like this :
<Context path="" docBase="webapps/ROOT" debug="0" reloadable="true"
>
</Context>
Now, does that "reloadable" attribute ring a bell =) It is said that
performance are (slightly) better if it is set to false, but you can set it
to true for your debug/developp purposes.
Make sure all of them are set to "true" and your missed auto reloading
feature will be enabled. Voilà !
Cheers, AD.
