JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA supports reloading classes when you decide by the menu "Run"/"Reload Changed classes". This option only works if you did not modify the structure of the classes (e.g.: by adding methods). It uses support from the JVM debugging APIs so it works very well, it will manage existing instances as instances of the previous class version and new instances will be created using the new version.

Thanks. I've taken a look at it. Here are some issues with it: 1) It still uses a timer. So it will still keep reloading when I am editing my files. 2) I have to specified which servlet classes to monitor. It seems there is no way to monitor all classes (including domain classes). 3) Reloading only a particular class will probably break the webapp (eg, when instances of classes hold references to its instances). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
