This article was previously published under Q184598 SUMMARY
This article describes how to reload Java class files in Internet Explorer
4.0--for example, if you have changed them while developing an applet.
MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft Visual J++ 1.1 and other development environments have previously
required the browser to be restarted in order for updated classes to be
used while debugging. This was because of issues with Internet Explorer
loading Java classes from the cache rather than from any updated classes on
the developer's computer. Using Internet Explorer 4.0, you can simply press
CTRL+F5 or CTRL + the Refresh button to cause the classes to be reloaded
and any updates used.
When the Active Desktop feature of Internet Explorer 4.0 is installed, the
operating system keeps an instance of Internet Explorer running until the
user logs off or reboots. In that situation, CTRL+Refresh makes it possible
to load class files you are developing without rebooting the computer.
