Support hot deployment and hot update
After an Axis2 Web service is created and started, the user can alter it in a couple of ways:
- User can do hot deployment in which any change to the Java implementation class of a deployed Axis2 Web service is automatically loaded by the Axis2 servlet.
- User can do hot update in which any change to the services.xml file or service directory of a deployed Axis2 Web service prompts for or causes the servlet to be recycled.
