why to restart server for any change in java class file

843841Apr 29 2004 — edited Apr 29 2004

Hi,
why do we have to restart the servlet/JSP server (unlike jsps) , after we change some thing in the java file and then compile it when the server is running. as the server loads the servlet or java class objects as and when rrequired. so it should take the newer version of compiled class file when request is given for it .
I am not quite sure but It is also true for web.xml file ( deployement descriptor file) also

thanks
