Developing Java Components

Question

          folks,
          The perenial question --
          "where do I put my java class files so that the server picks them up as
          soon as I change them?"
          Currently, my java assets reside under the WEB-INF directory.
          In version 5.1, I used to store all my java class files under the
          directory which was mapped as the servlet classpath, with a reload of 1
          second. I used to store all my tags, helperbeans, servlets in here
          whilst developing them, and then I moved them into the correct directory
          when I was ready with them.
          In version 6, there seems to be no equivalent property. I've read the
          http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs60/config_xml/mbeans.xml document which
          maps the 5.1 properties to the 6.0 properties. There is no mention of
          servlet class path.
          Does anyone know how to do this?
          regards,
          dk-
          ps. In terms of documentation, I think the above document I mentioned,
          should have a section entitled "5.1 properties not migrated to 6.0
          Config.xml" or something like that.
          

Answer 1

All your Java classes (including servlet classes) should go under the
          WEB-INF/classes directory (expanded) or under the WEB-INF/lib directory (as
          a jar file).
          Take a look at the following link for redeployment:
          http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs60/adminguide/appman.html#1028891
          Take a look at the following link for packaging web applications (including
          servlet classes)
