How to properly compile java

I'm getting the error method getCardType() is undefined for type trackDataForm. I have enclosed 2 files in which I have defined the getter getCardType() and I have called it with the instance in the other file DoDirectPaymentReceipt2.jsp. it looks like it should be correct because I have not deviated from the way the other setters and getters were defined. The others work. That makes me think that this is a problem with the compiling. What has happened is that I took the file trackDataForm.java which was working and then I added this setter and getter for cardType. Then even though I compile it with javac and replace to generated the .class file with the original .class. it gives this error. My guess is it has something to do with the paths or the environment. I'm developing on Linux.

OMG, I can't believe it was that simple. When I stopped and restarted the server it worked! Yes I'm using Tomcat.

When Tomcat deploy your web app it loads your classes.
If your environment allows it, then you could use Tomcat's Manager app to redeploy.
