Subject: Re: Watching a directory for new files
Various operating system allow hooks to do be notified when
items in the filesystem change. But since we're using java
- thats not the case here
Tomcat does have the capability of specifying one or more
<WatchedResource> elements inside a <Context> declaration, and reacting
to changes of the specified file system item. However, that reaction is
to reload the app, which may be a bit more drastic than the OP wanted.
Definitely an over-reaction!!
