Configuring Resin

[Brent Garner]

Hi,
I am looking for a way to have Resin recognise servlets when I change them without restarting the server. I did a little reading about it, I guess its all in the resin.conf file, but we are virtually hosted, so I am not sure about accessing that file...
Any ideas?
Thanks

(What if Resin doesn't update changed servlets and JSP pages?)

Resin has a delay for testing updated servlets and JSP pages. The configuration variable for both is 'class-update-interval' in resin.conf. It's an application-level variable. The default is 15 seconds. So Resin will only check every 15 seconds for an updated page. You can set this value to 0 for development work.
<http-config class-update-interval='0'>
...
</http-config>


If you want Resin to check servlets for updates every hour, your resin.conf might look like:
<http-config class-update-interval='3600'>
...
</http-config>

I've also found that you can tweak compile settings via:
<classpath id='WEB-INF/classes'
source='WEB-INF/src'
compile='true'/>
as well...
