Removing WS Classes From Cache
When I undeploy a web service, the class files remain loaded in the cache. This becomes a problem
when I need to update those files. Unless I shut down tomcat and start it up again, none of the
changes I make to the class files will go into effect. Even if I remove them entirely, I'm still
able to redeploy the web service without any changes to the service. Is there anyway to unload
the class files without shutting down and restarting tomcat?
Linux Red Hat 9.0+
JRockit 1.4.2_04
tomcat 5
axis 1.1

Excellent! I was actually looking for a CLI for reloading apps, but you pointed me in the right
direction. Now that I've read the manager help, I know I can use ant to reload an app from
command prompt.
Thanks,

I don't know about Tomcat 5 but Tomcat 4.1.30 has the manager app that
can be used for this express purpose. It allows you to deploy, start,
stop and reload individual web apps. After deploying the new class
files, use the manager app to reload the axis app. This will unload the
old class files and load the new ones.

What if your reload the Axis webapp?
In JBoss, I do this:
'touch server/deploy/axis.war/WEB-INF/web.xml'
