i cant see the changes even reloadable is true in eclipse

Question

hi I'm using eclipse and I'm trying out a few things with servlets.

Why in eclipse when i run a file after changes, i can't see the changes even though i set re loadable to true? i have a class that extends HttpServlet and in the doGet method I'm printing out just "Hello World!" and when I'm doing some changes i try to rerun it and everything stays like it was the first time. I'm using Apache tomcat 7.

is there a way to fix it?

<Context reloadable="true"> 
</Context>

Make sure you're restarting the Tomcat after every change you do. Also, check if the Build Automatically option is enabled on your Eclipse. — Luiggi Mendoza, Aug 06 '12 at 21:18

What you need is to build from scratch. Do the following:
1. Restart your server(tomcat)
2.Using eclipse Menu go to Project=>clean this will clean previous output
