Grails 7: Controller hot change doesn't take effect.

[arjangch]

Expected Behavior

In grails 5, I can hot change actions in controllers. It will show the result of my changes after auto re-compile.

Actual Behaviour

Grails 7 auto re-compiles but still runs old code. There won't be any changes until I stop Grails 7 and start it again.

Steps To Reproduce

1- Add something like println "--print index-1--" to index action in controller 2- start grails 7 3- running index action will print "--print index-1--" 4- Don't stop grails. Just change print statement to println "--print index-2--" 5- Wait for it to recompile 6- running index action. still showing "--print index-1--"
