Re: context sharing problems
I think you should evaluate how your app is designed. If you need to communicate cross context/processes you should consider using something like JMS to give you good isolation. Today you may want to have everything on a single box, tomorrow you might want other servers. Another option to consider is to change the need for a singleton type of class or store some info in a database.

RE: context sharing problems
Hi, Then put the singleton in the shared repository, not in ROOT. In general, what you're trying to do is inadvisable and against the spirit of the Servlet Specification: web applications are supposed to be self-contained. Features like a shared classloader repository are not mandated by the Spec and are a convenience-type feature with different levels of support and portability across containers. Consider alternative approaches to inter-webapp communication, such as over the network, via shared storage (filesystem or DB), or via a messaging platform such as JMS.

RE: context sharing problems
Well, I could do (and this actually works) but the problem then is that the web-apps are actually started up separately (in separate memory spaces) and the 'admin' one cannot access the singleton in the 'ROOT' one that has been initialised with some values.. I need some sort of context settings that point the classpath (vm ??) to the same place Any ideas?? -Original Message- From: Dov Rosenberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 30 September 2004 18:10 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: context sharing problems Why don't you put your shared classes into $CATALINA_HOME/shared/classes.

context sharing problems
Hi, I am trying to share the same class files (and libraries) between two different web-apps one running in ROOT/ and one is admin/ Basically, I want the first one to run from the default context ie http://www.x.com/ And the second web-app to run as http://www.x.com/admin However, all of the classes for both web-apps are situated in the first one (ROOT). This may seem a strange way of doing things, but I need to reflect the changes made in admin (basically a collection of jsps etc) in ROOT (a series of filters etc). I have actually got this to work using a tomcat plugin in eclipse because of the way eclipse shares libraries and classpaths Does anyone know how I could do this for a standalone tomcat (running in windows)??? Just to clarify: Web-apps\ ROOT\ WEB-INF\ Classes\ My\package\name\MyFilter.class My\package\name\StrutsAction.class My\package\name\ApplicationResources.properties My\package\name\MySingletonIIWantTochangeViaTheGuiRealTime.class Admin\ WEB-INF\ Web\index.jsp Thanks for your help M --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
