Glad to here this ! :) I think I agree with everything here ... just would like to add that, for sure the container ability to reload a web application takes care of this, but in the same time, it also takes care of many other things that are a lot longer that reloading struts-config.xml ... This why I'm looking for a way to do this without reloading the entire webapp :) ________________________________________________________________ Etudiant: Wanadoo t'offre le Pack eXtense Haut D�bit soit 150,92 euros d'�conomies !
