Hi to all, reading this mail and other I understand the version 3.3 and previous are unable to dynamic reload classes or init parameter without restart the whole application server. Instead the nightly build of Tomcat the 4.0-20020124 is able dynamic load classes and web.xml etc. Is this correct? I not have big experience but what automatic WAR deploy is for? And reloadable=true in server.xml?
