Hi Robert,
Congratulations on having Embedded Tomcat in your application.
My apologies for not explaining a solution to your problem more clearly.
The method we had discussed by private mail earlier today indeed works. I
cannot give you actual source code, simply because I'm downloading Tomcat at
the moment.
The only part that you need to work on is the :
> MyApplication app = <someway of getting access to the instantiated object>;
that you have mentioned below:
Let's say your application (with all its parts) is represented by
MyApplication.
You could create the class along the lines of :
public class MyApplication{
private static MyApplication currentInstance = null;
private MyApplication(){
}
public MyApplication getCurrentInstance(){
if (currentInstance==null){
currentInstance = new MyApplication();
initialize(); // some initialization work
}
return currentInstance;
}
}
You should now be able to access MyApplication's object from within your web
applications via MyApplication.getCurrentInstance();
In your care, you do not need JNDI. There is another means of sharing objects
(via JMX) that I shall explore once this Tomcat download is completed.
