sorry for sending a email to tomcat-dev List :-) I have already installed
jakarta-tomcat-4.0-b1/2/3(standalone, JDK1.3, winnt40), and this moring
I installed TC4.0-b4, just from my work, I find that I can not enable
auto-reloading with TC4.0-b2/3/4, auto-reloading works quite well with
TC4.0-b1, the following is detail:
- in conf/server.xml, I set the following:
... reloadable="true" ...
- my testing Servlet class(a class file, not a jar file) is in WEB-INF/classes,
I find it can not be auto-reloaded with TC4.0-b2/3/4
- with the same class, with TC4.0-b1, auto-reloading works quite well.
and I also have a question:
>NOTE: automatic reloading is currently supported only for unpacked
>classes in WEB-INF/lib.
I think:
- unpacked (Servlet) classes are in WEB-INF/classes, not in WEB-INF/lib,
is this a "writing error"? or I also can put .class file in WEB-INF/lib? i.e.
% I only can put jar file in WEB-INF/lib, I can not put class file in
WEB-INF/lib
% I only can put class file in WEB-INF/classes, I can not put jar file in
WEB-INF/classes
% or I can put both class/jar file in both classes/lib folder?
- now all the jar files in TOMCAT_HOME/lib or WEB-INF/lib can Not be
auto-reloaded,
only those .class file in WEB-INF/classes should be auto-reloaded
is the above right?
Thanks in advance for your time! :-)
