As you have discovered, it is not possible to create a general-purpose
invoker servlet like this, because it requires "insider" knowledge of
the servlet container you are running under. You'd need to be modifying
the guts of your existing servlet container to do this.
On the other hand, why are you doing it at all? Every servlet engine I
know already provides this sort of capability already.
