My bad -- b6 isn't out yet.  I guess you're supposed to get a more recent
"nightly build" of b5.

Move to b6.  b5 has a problem recompiling JSPs <surprise!>

I've been having the same problem.  When I modify a JSP, it isn't recompiled
automatically.  However, if I delete the .class file associated with the
JSP, both the .java and the .class files associated with the JSP are
rebuilt.  So I've been deleting the .class files whenever I make JSP
changes.

I recall someone on this list mentioning that Tomcat 4b5 had a known bug
regarding detection of changes in source files, so I've assumed that was the
problem I've been seeing.

I'm using standalone Tomcat 4b5 in a Win2000 environment.

If anyone knows of a configuration change or a work-around that could get my
JSPs to compile properly when changed, please let me know!

Thanks
David
