Yes. I am aware of that. It is the auto-deploy that I was interested in. I want to test it out. I have heard a lot of good things about it - especially improved classloaders/classloading. Hot deploy is a big concern in production environments. that's the reason. Also, development will als o be much easier I think. I will take Kedar's suggestion of using the ant script.
on a related note: URLClassLoader is still used if I am not wrong. So, I guess, the classloader itself hasn't changed. Is that right?
thanks guys for the quick responses.
