Here is the link to the jasper doc for jsp compilation
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jasper-howto.html
You will need to modify the checkInterval param in the conf/web.xml file of
your tomcat server, it defaults to 300 secs. so tomcat only checks every 5
mins for a new doc
for a 30 sec this should work
<init-param>
<param-name>checkInterval</param-name>
<param-value>30</param-value>
</init-param>
However by default 4.1 is set up to check on every file access, you might
try forcing this with
<init-param>
<param-name>development</param-name>
<param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>
These will work for 4.1, I do not know if 4.0 has similar params but I have
noticed that 4.0 does seem slow in recognizing new jsp pages. Most of the
apps we support run off of servlet so I have not spent much time tunning the
jsp servlet

Subject: Work Directory in Tomcat
Can anybody explain the usage of work Directory in Tomcat. I see that
the compiled versions of the JSP's are being stored here. Does the JSP
get loaded from here upon actual execution? IF so what happens if there
is a change in the JSP.
One strange problem is every time I change a JSP, I had to go and remove
the JSP classes from the work directory before I could get to see the
changed version. Any Ideas?
Hari
