Yep, Pax Web will just log a message and still be alive for future re-configurations. What is kind of nice I would say in Pax Web is that the HttpService remains steady during reconfigurations or if the web service itself (jetty) does not work. Steady, in the sense that users of HttpService will not have to handle service the service appearing/disappearing from service registry so, they do not have to re-register the servlets/resources. > >> If you find it useful we can easy implement also the part where Pax >> Web will find it's free port and use it, since we already have such a >> functionality from Pax Exam. > > YES: I do find that useful! Is it already christmas time? Just create an jira issue for it ;) The way we have it is that you can give a starting port and a number of ports to be scanned. > >> Question is then how you will know what >> port to use?

You want same service to handle = create a connector for all those ports? or create an http service for each port, or use the ports in order to figure out a fist free one? -- Alin Dreghiciu http://www.ops4j.org - New Energy for OSS Communities - Open Participation Software. http://www.qi4j.org - New Energy for Java - Domain Driven Development. http://www.codedragons.com - New Energy for Projects - Great People working on Great Projects at Great Places Sent from: Cluj-Napoca CJ Romania. _______________________________________________ general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ops4j.org/mailman/listinfo/general
