: : I should probably be asking a more specific question about classloaders : and sandboxes and whatnot, but I'm not sure how this stuff works in : tomcat and I'm not familiar w/ classloaders beyond their basic operation.
I'm not familiar with how the manager app "reloads" apps, but you could perform an experiment to find out:
If you already have such a static var in question, write a quick JSP
that prints that value to screen. Fire up your app, hit this JSP (to
catch the initial/default value).
Call the servlet/whatever that changes that value.
Next, reload Tomcat using the manager app.
Hit the JSP again (make sure to force a reload in your browser). Compare the printed value to the original/default.
Also, is there any reason you require this to be a static variable?
