set different JRE versions on Tomcat 5.x

[Olena Mitovska]

How Tomcat 5.0.28 running on IIS (OS windows XP)  can be configured to use 
different JVM ( JRE versions) for J2EE applications running on the server?
There are a bunch of existing applications that were compiled using 1.4 
version, while our new apps use 1.5. We need to be able to set JRE version for 
every application. There are some version conflicts that prevent us from 
setting one common JRE for all apps.
This is the production server so we don't have any other Java software like 
Eclipse installed there. I know that Eclipse allows to choose JRE for every 
deployed application, but we don't have it on production machine.

I have been looking for any information about this problem in internet  but 
found nothing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Olena

Sorry, this can't be done. Tomcat and all the apps run within a single 
JVM. You would have to have multiple Tomcat instances.
