It's more a question of, why would you want to invoke sleek() from a
servlet?

Well, then, don't do it.  When you have a case that leaves you no choice
but to break the standards, then do it.  Otherwise, don't.

looking for insight on invoking Thread.sleep() from a tomcat servlet

2005-05-29 Thread Clark O'Brien
Can someone provide insight on the adverse affects of
invoking sleep() from a servlet. I understand that the
J2EE explicitly forbids invoking sleep from within a
servlet and it is not hard to figure out this could
cause problems given that a single tomcat thread may 
service multiple requests. But I still see
applications that break this rule so I would like to
hear ideas on this.

I haven't noticed any problem here.  Our in house JDBC conn  pool used 
thread.sleep as well as a lot of other code.
