I am developing an app in JRuby on Rails. For some reason, when I edit the view files, the development JRuby Mongrel server doesn’t reload them. The perplexing thing is that after editing the controller files, the server reloads them just fine on the next request.

This would be annoying even when using MRI Ruby, however starting up JRuby Mongrel after every view edit is much slower, and much more annoying. (Note that once it starts up it’s quite fast, the only issue is startup–the JVM has to load up every time I start JRuby Mongrel.)

I’m running JRuby 1.5.0, Rails 2.3.5, and Java 6.

    I found that removing config.threadsafe! in config/environment.rb and restarting the script/server enables auto-reloading of view files again.

    This may still be a bug in JRuby, but I’m not sure.
