force JSP to recompile
Hello,
My apologies if this question has already been answered. I've gone
through the archives, but haven't found a suitable answer.
I am running Tomcat 5 in a production environment and have set
development=false and reloading=false. Occasionally, I do have to make a
change to a JSP, which then has to be recompiled manually. I remember
reading a while ago that you can append a parameter to the URL to get a
JSP to recompile (something like page.jsp?compile=true). Does this still
work in Tomcat 5? If so, what is the exact parameter? If there is a
better way to do this, I would like to know. I have read about using Ant,
but compiling with a URL parameter would be my preferred method.
Thanks in advance!
Jonathan

Yes, I guess so.
I think the reason behind this facility is to allow you precompile JSPs
before the container does it on your behalf, thereby finding errors
before a customer does.

Thanks for the responses.
Sadly, this only seems to work if development=true, unless I am doing
something wrong. Doesn't that seem a little redundant, seeing as Tomcat
will always check for changes and compile when in development mode?

Hi Jonathan,
I have not tried on Tomcat 5, but you can force compilation as follows:
http://host:8080/path/to/required/file.jsp?jsp_precompile=true
Cheers,
