|Is it possible to manually cause a servlet to be unloaded and then reloaded
|by jserv? I understand that servlets are reloaded automatically when the
|underlying class file changes, but I would like to be able to trigger a
|similar event manually.
|
I also have a question along similar lines. I have a servlet that, when
loaded, stokes up a static Hastable from an XML file. If I update the class file
then the servlet will "automatically" reload BUT the storage used by the
previous incarnation will become inaccessible, ie, will leak away. Now I
have written a "garbage collection" portal to my servlet which sets all
large static tables to null so that the servlet can be destroy()ed and so
the storage doesn't leak away - however, I simply can't be bothered to
nullify ALL static variables in my code as there's hundreds, so on each
reload, I lose a moderate amount of memory. I there a way around this ?
Adam (man of many questions)
PS WRT an earlier post. I also have trouble with some class files giving a
NoClassDefError when running as a servlet but not when run from the command
line. In the end I gave up!
