Hi,
I recently noticed that Tomcat 8.0.5 does not invalidate cache entries
for web resources.
Here are the steps to reproduce:
1. make "/foo.html" available through a jar file ->
META-INF/resources/foo.html
2. Open foo.html in your browser
3. Add a new file "foo.html" inside you webapp directory with different
content.
4. Refresh foo.html in your browser.
One would expect to see the content of the file that was added in step
3. But Tomcat caches the URL it resolved in step 2 and sticks to it
forever. This is new in Tomcat 8.
I would prefer that Tomcat always check the current webapp directory and
uses it cache only for the *.jar files.
kind regards,
Thomas
