Tomcat Caching
hello, I have just started using Tomcat to host my java servlets. I want to
know if there is anyway to turn off the caching for development purposes.
As it is now, when I make change to a servlet, I have to restart the tomcat
server for the changes to take effect. While this isn't hard, it is a tad
bit annoying. Please be specific as I know very little about tomcat.
Thanks

If I remember correctly, you probably need to provide a servlet mapping
for your servlet.

Adam
In the server.xml you will find the following lines. This is the context for
the ROOT. Just uncomment it and add reloadable=true
<!-- Tomcat Root Context -->
<!--
<Context path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0"/>
-->

Schalk,
I added the following line to the server.xml file and restarted tomcat.
<context path="/servlet" docBase="servlet" debug="0" reloadable="true" />
That didn't work. Can you tell what is wrong. I have tomcat to load
servlets from the classes dir so that I access servlets like this:
http://mydomain.com:port#/servlet/File
Will this make a difference with what I am trying to do?
Thanks

In the Tomcat confide directory, there is a file called server.xml. Inside
here you can create a Context-Path and set reloadable=true.
