Tomcat 5.5.4 fails to recompile JSPs

["Carlos A. Carnero Delgado" <ca...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I just upgraded my test development box to Tomcat 5.5.4 and Sun's JDK
1.5.0. I just created a simple (the simplest?) web application to test
things out. I always go the Ant route (with Tomcat's documentation
sample build.xml) and everything went smoothly.

Except reloading JSPs. In the past, if I changed a JSP file in the
"source" directory and then issued an "ant compile" (or just "ant") it
would put the just changed file into the "build" directory, which
would be picked and recompiled by Tomcat at once (provided, of course,
that the app was deployed.)

Now, I can't do that with this new setup. Obviously, I'm missing
something very simple, but I have searched high and low but found no
answer.

Not even reloading the application pick the changes up. Undeploying
and redeploying does the trick. What am I doing wrong?

Best regards,
Carlos.

Tomcat 5.5.4/JDK 1.5.0/Windows XP development box.
