reload servlet automatically

hi,

I've a problem reloading my servlets without restarting tomcat.
<Context path="/myapp"
	docBase="/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/myapp"
	debug="1"
	reloadable="true"
	trusted="true" >
</Context>
If i recompile my servlet, tomcat doesn't use the new .class-file.

I have tomcat 3.2.3 running and cannot upgrade to tomcat 4.

thanks,
Markus

How about upgrading to 3.3, reloading is working there most of the time
(just for servlets, not for supporting classes btw).
In short : 3.3 is a big improvement (also in other ways) to the 3.2 versions
(at least that is my opinion).

Mvgr,
Martin

In general, Tomcat 3.2 only checks for updated classes at request time, so
you actually have to perform a request to trigger the check.  In addition,
it doesn't catch all cases of updated classes (although it's usually
pretty good at checking the servlet class you are requesting this time).
