cache busting

sorry if this is faq - i checked and couldn't find it except basic info
about how tomcat caching works.

can't figure out why jsp pages do not get re-compliled after changes are
made.  (server is NT 4.0 with apache 1.3.14/tomcat 1.0)  i've done
seemingly everything - deleting the class files in the tomcat/work
directory, restarting apache/tomcat.

seems like there's only two ways to make it update - reboot the machine  or
deleting the class file, removing the .jsp files - restarting tomcat,
accessing the page (to get a 404) then moving the .jsp file back.  very
bizzare and un-fun way to write jsp pages.

any ideas...?

much thanks,

seems like there's only two ways to make it update - reboot the machine  or
a bizzare sequence of events that includes temporarily removing the jsp
files, deleting class files, rebooting apache/tomcat.  gots to be a better
way.  any ideas...?
