Well I put it as Serializable the object bound to session. It was a GOOD
point but even this did not solve my problem it just became more
unpredictable. Well I have not tested it through yet but sometimes it works
sometimes not randomly.
I have the feeling that the classloader reloads somehow randomly the
classes...
I use 3.2.2 and JDK1.3. All my classes are under myapp/WEB-INF/classes so no
JAR is used.
But this annoyes me. How can it be that it says that your object is
"BindObject" type and when I try to cast it fails? And this happens only if
I recompile one class. If I restart TOMCAT all works fine.

Hi :-) sometimes it is because that: after auto-reloading, the original
CL(classloader) of this webapp has been replaced by another New
one, so (basically), if the object which is put into session by you as
an Attibute implements "java.io.Serializable", perhaps you can
avoid some of such problems.
(basically) if you want to put a object into a session as an Attibute,
perhaps it is better to make it Serializable, it will be good for the
following:
- cross auto-reloading of one special webapp
- cross TC-restarting(after restating TC, I still can get this Attribute)
- cross multi-TC instances(?)
for example, with TC4.0-b5(standalone, SDK1.3, winnt40):
- if I put a "Serializable object" into a session, And the class-file of
this
object is in WEB-INF/classes, or in a jar file in WEB-INF/lib,
I found I can do the following:
cross auto-reloading of one special webapp
- if I put a "Serializable object" into a session, And the class-file of
this
object is in a jar file in TOMCAT_HOME/lib(loaded by ShareCL),
I found I can do Both the following:
cross auto-reloading of one special webapp
cross TC-restarting(after restating TC, I still can get this Attribute)
