I believe it's referring to this. See the "reloadable" attribute. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/loader.html but you can just set "reloadable" on your <Context /> tag. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/context.html#Common_Attributes Dan > > Thanks. > > /cytg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
