Are you compiling your .java files? Are you copying the .class files
and any other updated files into the deployment directory?

Reload will stop the web application, then re-start it. If you've
updated cached resources on the disk (e.g. classes or libraries,
certain static files, etc.) then the caches will start empty after the
reload.

You should only need "reload" if you are updating your web application
on the disk and don't have "reloadable" set to true for your application.
