One of the very useful features in previous JBoss AS versions was the ability of the server to identify and pick up changes to a .jsp page in an exploded deployment and serve the updated content on next request. Trying this out in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta3, I see that this no longer works:

1) Create and deploy a test.war (along with a test.war.dodeploy) in the standalone/deployments.
2) test.war contains a test.jsp with an intentional syntax error in it
3) Access the jsp via browser and see the (expected) compilation error. Now open the test.jsp file in a text editor, from the exploded test.war deployment, and edit it to fix the error
4) Access the jsp via browser again. Tried it more than once. I still see the compilation failure i.e. the jsp changes aren't being picked up anymore. I had to undeploy and redeploy the exploded deployment for the changes to be picked up.

I remember that in previous versions of AS there were some parameters for the jsp compiler/executor which by default enabled this check for jsp changes. Has this changed in AS7? Where and what values are set currently? Or has this got something to do with the way we handle exploded deployment in AS7?
