Dynamic class reloading

• By default, CFMX will NOT dynamically reload changed servlets and CFOBJECT classes

  • This is a performance optimization

• In development, may want to change setting in cf_root\wwwroot\WEB-INF\jrun-web.xml

  • add the following line within the <jrun-web-app> element: <reload>TRUE</reload>

• Will now reload

  • classes from cf_root\wwwroot\WEB-INF\classes
  • classes in jar/zip archives in cf_root\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib

• Note:

  • The cf_root\wwwroot\WEB-INF\classes directory must contain class files only, not class archives. Java class archives belong under the cf_root\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib directory
