struts.devMode也就是struts的开发模式

struts2中的配置文件中只要添加以下配置，那么以后修改配置文件不用重启tomcat的方法。

要添加的代码：

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
<constant name="struts.devMode" value="true" />

struts.devMode也就是struts的开发模式，默认值为false，这里修改为true就可以了，以后一旦就该这个文件中的配置就不用去重启tomcat，着实方便许多。但是问题也出现了：

view plaincopy to clipboardprint?
严重: Exception starting filter struts2

原因：tomcat目录不能有空格。
