hotdeploy of war files results in static variable being null

[Fu-Tung Cheng]

Hi,

I sometime hotdeploy my war file to tomcat 6.0.16.  I have noticed that a 
static variable in one of my classes then ends up being null.

The variable is initialized as follows:

private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(MyClass.class);

and then used below in a method:

public void mymethod(String mystring) {
  logger.info(mystring + " did something");
}       

This is a little annoying as I then need to restart the server for this class 
to work properly.  

Is this a known bug?  I could probably create a little sample war file to 
demonstrate the issue but I don't want to go through that if you guys already 
know about the issue.

Thanks,

Fu-Tung
