Not sure if this helps you or not. You could use the following.

Consequently, I try to avoid restarting apps because it takes a long time for the core to get spooled up. In this vein I have a custom classloader that reloads the WEB-INF/classes directory without doing a full restart of the app. I've run into a problem, however, in JSPs. It's possible for JSPs to contain a reference to a .class file that becomes stale when I reload behind the scenes, which results in a ClassCastException. The bottom line here is that I am searching for a way to programmatically force tomcat to drop all loaded JSPs from memory. I do not need to recompile them, just reload the classes. However, if compilation and reloading are inextricably linked, that's a cost I'm willing to accept. I've tried looking around the documentation and searching the mailing list, but I've been unsuccessful so far. Any insight is greatly appreciated.
