Changed servlet not reloading.

Hello fellow Tomcat users,

I have scoured the docs and some faqs, and can't figure out why my
servlet isn't being reloaded by tomcat. Here is the info:

Tomcat 4.0.3 under Window 2k
My project exists under $catalina_home/webapps/tomcat40
My servlet successfully loads with the URL:
http://localhost:8080/tomcat40/servlet/joshbrain.tomcat.FirstServlet
However, when I edit the source file, recompile and redeploy (using
Ant), and hit reload on the browser (or restart the browser - IE 5.0)
the output doesn't change! (My edit consists of changing a static
out.println() statement).

I was under the impression that Tomcat has a coolio class loader that
can detect when a class file changes, and will reload when it does.
That's what the tomcat doc says, and that's what the jguru FAQ says.

What gives? How can I even begin to troubleshoot this?

Kind regards,
Josh Rehman
