Hi Erick,
It is possible to dynamically update the virtual hosts without restarting the whole component. There is a Component#updateHosts() method that you can invoke for this purpose.

One technique is to use VirtualHosts, but I'd like to be able to add new domains dynamically. (Scala code): val listOfHosts = List( HostConfig("foo", "foo.com|foo.net", "foo_db"), HostConfig("bar", "bar.com|bar.net", "bar_db"), ) for(host <- listOfHosts) { val aHost = new VirtualHost(getContext) aHost.setHostDomain(host.domains) aHost.attachDefault(new WebsiteApplication(webdir, host.dbname)) aHost.attach("/lib", aLibApplication) aHost.attach("/api", new ApiApplication(webdir, host.dbname)) aHost.attach("/admin", new AdminApplication(webdir, host.dbname)) getHosts.add(aHost) } Another technique is to use one set of application, but have internal logic for each request. Since the applications are the same except for the database back-end would this be more appropriate? class BaseResource extends ServerResource { var config = _ override def doInit() { config = db.getConfigurationFor(getReference.getHostDomain) } } I'm looking for anyone how has experience solving a similar problem.
