It's been my experience that different containers vary in their ability to sense changes to Action classes and even JavaServer Pages. Resin is quite good at this. Tomcat on Linux is also good at this. (Though Tomcat on NT does not seem to be quite as good.) This is really up to the container, and there isn't much that Struts can do about it.
The load-on-startup is defined by the servlet specification. http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/ It simply indicates in which order the servlet should be loaded. The "zeros" are loaded first, then the "1"s and then the "2"s and so forth. It doesn't affect runtime behavior. <unsolicited-advice> If I were using something like BroadVision, I might be tempted to do my desktop development using another container, like Resin, and then test the deployment against both Tomcat and Broadvision. This is to ensure that application remains compliant, and is not relying on any proprietary "features". Of course, this implies that automated unit tests are being written and can be run automatically using something like Cactus, on at least a daily basis. </unsolicited-advice> Gaetano Bigliardi wrote: > > I've a problema using Struts with BroadVision One-To-One Enterprise.
