Tomcat security during runtime

2005-08-10 Thread Matt Anderson
Hello all I have a question, if you setup your own security in Tomcat by using your own policy, is there anyway to modify this policy during runtime, without restarting tomcat itself? Is there any Java API you can use to modify the security manager during run time? Thanking you in advance.
