I'm curious: What's the benefit having Tomcat run in SSL-mode for Servlet / JDP-development? > Okay but as far as I know when you make any trivial change in eclipse, It > builds an entire WAR file and restarts its tomcat instance which means lost > sessions really annoying if your working on the forth step of a 4 step > process. and also it means Its slow to develop. That's definately wrong. Eclipse won't restart Tomcat but will re-deploy the war-file. I'm not too sure about the next one. I remeber that here's a discussion going on here about losing sessions during re-deplyment: AFAIK a session is only lost after you stop an application - not during redeployment. However, there's a small catch: If you change the class which is added to a session as a sesson-attribute, I'm pretty much sure that the session will be lost, since deserializing the session-data might not work any more. Maybe one of the guys here can shed some more light how it's /supposed/ to be. There's an interesting thread here on the list regarding the loss of sessions during re-deployment which some consider a bug, and there's even a workaround for that bug: http://www.nabble.com/Session-lost-when-app.-is-redeployed-td22660549.html My personal oppinion: When I re-deploy a webapp (and the webapp is changed!), a session /must/ be lost, otherwise serialization / de-serialization of session-data might end up somewhere in Nirvana.
