RE: Tomcat 3.3 and 4.0, different behaviour when reloading the "w eb.xml"

["WIPPERT,MAX (HP-Germany,ex1)" <ma...@hp.com>]

Hi Remy, thanx for you answer.

Using the Manager App with start&stop or with reload reloads my Servlet,
destroy() and init() are processed.
Unfortunatly this does NOT force TC4.0 to reload the web.xml.
I think I will have a look at the nighly build...

Regards, Max

Either:
- Use the manager webapp (do a stop followed by a start)
- Use a nightly build (4.0-HEAD includes automatic deployment and web.xml
tracking)
