Re: Updating helper Jar while in use

What do you mean by "help .jar files?" If your classloader is using those
jars, replacing them while the JVM is running can be problematic; you can
do it by using a local classloader, and discarding it when the jar changes,
but that's... interesting to do.

An option, though, is to look at JRebel, which has made a name for itself
out of providing this kind of functionality.
