Tomcat: hot loading and hot deployment configuration (succinct and clear)

---

foreword

Hot deployment is to redeploy the project when the server is running, and hot loading is to reload the class at runtime to upgrade the application.

---

1. Hot loading

Hot loading: set reloadable="true" in server.xml -> context attribute

<Context docBase="xxx" path="/xxx" reloadable="true" />  

2. Hot deployment

Hot deployment: set autoDeploy="true" in server.xml -> context attribute

<Context docBase="xxx" path="/xxx" autoDeploy="true"/>

Well enough:

<Host name="localhost"  appBase="webapps"  
            unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"  
            xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">  
<Context docBase="xxx" path="/xxx"/>   
</Host>
