Hi, The Tomcat shutdown script provides support for a -force option, which does a kill -9 on the process ID after the normal shutdown.
If you want something beyond that, do it yourself. Accounting for reasons like an OOME or your own code spawning non-daemon threads is outside Tomcat's scope. "If it takes too long" is a vague criterion at best, as conditions and use-cases wildly differ. Yoav Shapira http://www.yoavshapira.com >-----Original Message----- >From: Kevin A.
