Yessir... I use this method:
in the init() method of the servlet I do something like:
Class c=Class.forName("MyApplication");
Object o=c.newInstance();
Thread t=new Thread(new AppRunner(o),null);
t.start();
And I have a runnable like
public class AppRunner {
private Object o=null;
private String argv[]=null;
public Apprunner(Object o, String argv[]) {
super();
this.o=o;
this.argv=argv;
}
public void run() {
this.o.main(this.argv[]);
}
}
Or something like it... I don't have the sources here, at the moment....
And this starts the application!
