manual reloading a class

[michel <co...@videotron.ca>]

I don't want to use the automatic class reload for performance reasons, but is there some code or such that will reload a specific class?



Thank you!

If this has anything to do with Tomcat, it's not clear.

What "automatic class reload" are you referring to?  What performance issues you do perceive?

There is a JVMTI mechanism in the 1.5 and above JREs that allows for a class to be "redefined"; this is typically used by profilers to insert monitoring instructions.  That's about it.

Within Tomcat, you can reload a webapp, but not individual classes, other than those derived from JSPs.
