actually this is a query i din't know where to put a query so i have put it here........

does the jsp compiler, compile a jsp page for every change made...if so how does it detect that a change is made...... for eg: u open a jsp page and view it...go to the real source and make some static changes or even script changes...and then u press refresh, still while the server is running....u can view the changes made!!! so where, when and how does the server know that the change is made and when is it processed????

It looks at the file date. Most JSP containers support configuration for how often the container checks the file timestamp to see if the page has changed. Typically, this timestamp would be set to a short (perhaps seconds) interval for development, and longer (perhaps minutes, or even never) interval for a deployed application. – Doug Bell talkcontrib 06:44, 13 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
