The strategy of "post-processing" after the setup() is not really robust. I've encountered a number of packages that try to things like that, and I've never had one work right. And no, it won't solve the init{modulename} problem, either. It's a problem that occurs at build-time, not import-time. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
