You know, that's what I expected as well, but it kept working. That's why I asked the question to begin with. A fascinating truth is that I can execute the sample jsp (Hello.class), as I just did again, and there is no file in webapps/sample/WEB-INF/classes/mypackage directory. None whatsoever. There is, however, hello_jsp.class in $CATALINA_HOME/work/Catalina/localhost/sample/org/apache/jsp, as was pointed out by Mr Martin Gainty, with the correct timestamp. That makes me think maybe what you are claiming is happening with a different version of tomcat? As I mentioned, mine is 6.0.14. What's yours?
