Hi Scott, Thanks for the info. Number 2 works very well.
Cheers, Dave -----Original Message----- From: Scott Nichol [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 27 November 2002 14:23 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Cached classes? I am no Tomcat expert, but here are some things I think I know. 1. Note that if you deploy the webapp by copying the war file to the webapps directory, you must delete its exploded directory in order for a new war file to take its place. For this reason, it may be better to install a webapp on Tomcat by exploding (jar -x...) it directly, rather than dropping the war file in place. See "Deployment with Tomcat 4" at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/deployment.html. 2. If you define a Context for the SOAP webapp in server.xml, you can specify that it is reloadable like this <Context path="/examples" docBase="examples" debug="0" reloadable="true"> I *think* this means it will check for changes and re-load classes automatically, but I may be wrong. 3. You can use the Tomcat manager app to reload a webapp on demand. See http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/manager-howto.html. 4. Tomcat also provides ant tasks to deploy, reload, undeploy, etc., if you prefer ant. I'm not sure where those docs are.
