I have found that it depends greatly on your configuration. I use maven with eclipse 3.3 on ubuntu for build and dependency management with the jetty plug-in to run Tapestry. Reloading works well for me, but I have found that some versions of the plug-in didn't do the reloading out of the box for whatever reason.
Some of my colleagues run an identical setup to me, just on windows instead on Linux and it doesn't seem work for them either. And Tomcat is another story, it does not do live reloading at all, it does a kind of partial restart, which is nowhere near as productive as Jetty and can be a bit annoying to work with at times. regards, Peter ----- Original Message ----- From: "Howard Lewis Ship" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tapestry users" <users@tapestry.apache.org> Sent: Wednesday, 29 October, 2008 4:41:14 PM GMT +02:00 Athens, Beirut, Bucharest, Istanbul Subject: Re: New JIRA: Tapestry does not pick pages, components and templates after application startup You should be able to point Jetty at your workspace's src/main/webapp folder (or equivalent). As long as your IDE compiles classes to folders on Jetty's classpath, live class reloading just works. Live class reloading is only for class file directly on the file system; classes packaged into JARs are not subject to live class reloading. The most likely problem is that your classes are compiled to directory A but not then copied to directory B which is on Jetty's search path. I've had zero problems with live class reloading in Eclipse and IntelliJ, but I haven't tried NetBeans.
