Reloading Scripts
This link instructs Arbortext PE sub-processes to reload custom ACL, JavaScript, and VBScript scripts. This action is available from the Reload Subprocesses link on the Arbortext Publishing Engine index page. Use Reload Subprocesses to load changes you've made to ACL, JavaScript, and VBScript files without restarting Arbortext Publishing Engine or its Arbortext PE sub-processes. This function reloads ACL, JavaScript, and VBScript programs from the PE_HOME/custom/init subdirectory. It also clears the previous stylesheet cache and loads changed stylesheets.
The Arbortext PE sub-process doesn't reload its initialization files until it receives the next request for processing. This feature is especially convenient in the development and testing phase, when you may need to reload your scripts frequently without the need to stop and start Arbortext Publishing Engine.
* 
Reload Subprocesses (and the f=init function) does not affect Java applications. After an Arbortext PE sub-process has started, its JVM can't reload a .class or .jar file. If you change a Java application, you must stop and restart the servlet container to make the updated Java application available to Arbortext Publishing Engine.
