You must write the daemon thread in a normal java file. You can use java.util.Timer class to wake up at a defined interval so as to send emails.
Normally web server provides a way to start some of our code as it starts. When we register servlets there we can define whether it shud run at the start of server or not. If yout Jaguar CTS 4.0 web server provides that then create a servlet and in the init method call your java method where you have defined the timer code. It will work for you. -----Original Message----- From: Emmanuel Eze [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 03, 2002 6:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Daemon Thread Hi All, I need to develop a daemon thread that wakes up at a defined interval to send email based on some conditions. My web application is purely written in JSP. I am trying to choose between writing the daemon as a Servlet or a Java Application. I need to get this daemon running as soon as the web server is started. My web server is Jaguar CTS 4.0 from Sybase. Can somebody pls advise me on whether to use servlet/java application? Pls I'd like to know how I can get the daemon to start with the web server.
