Hi!

I'm working on the JBoss plugin for Catalina, and everything is going
well except for classloading. For some very obscure reason I can't get
Catalina to pick up new classes. What the plugin does is to delegate to
the EmbeddedManager MBean (which internally delegates to Embedded) on
deploy. If the app has already been deployed it is first undeployed.
But, the new classes just aren't picked up. For some strange reason it
is using the last set of classes. What is going on!?! I'm using
Tomcat4b7, since the latest Tomcat4b8 src'es doesn't seem to be working
it all (not for me anyway).

Any ideas? Could this possible be related to this thread that I found in
the archives:
