It is possible to do it in a few ways ... one would be embedding phoenix in a servlet environment. However I would suggest that you separate them anyway because it is easier to debug and manage the application via that way. There is one problem in Phoenix that stops catalina running under it but eventually that will be fixed ;) > - i did'nt see any non blocking IO classes for avalon, which are needed > by my project (NBIO or java.nio), so I think I will have to implement > them by myself.

Nothing specific to Avalon but you may want to check out Matt Welshs SEDA architecture papers. I believe Berin was also starting to experiment with this sort of stuff but not sure where it is at. > - is avalon working with JDK 1.4? Theres a few problems that we know about - they changed JDBC interfaces between JDK1.3 and JDK1.4 so you have to make sure you compile it for the correct JVM. There was also a probalem with shutdown hooks being called - but that wasn't specific to Avalon as such. -- Cheers, Pete *------------------------------------------------* | Trying is the first step to failure. | | So never try, Lisa - Homer Jay Simpson | *------------------------------------------------* -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
