Try with "/", is the context ROOT. But I'm not sure that it will work.

Hi all, I've been reading through the documentation on using custom Ant tasks with Tomcat, but I am sorry to say that I am confused. This will most likely turn out to be a very basic question, but I'm not sure where to go with it. I have a src directory for my .java files that I wish to compile to .class files and simply store them on $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT for now. I have a build.xml file in the src directory which I have been using to deploy the class files to the appropriate directory. My question is, how would I use Ant custom tasks to restart Tomcat when I deploy the class files (please continue reading, as I will explain where I am confused)? Looking at the manager-howto, I see there are custom tasks for Deploy, Reload, Start, Stop, etc that I should place in the build.xml file. I am unsure how to use these to restart Tomcat. For example, the Reload task looks like this: <target name="reload" description="Reload web application" depends="compile"> <reload url="${url}" username="${username}" password="${password}" path="${path}"/> </target> What would I specify for ${path}? In the example file provided in the howto, it says I should specify it to be myApp. However, I am not necessarily restarting an app; I wish to restart Tomcat. Is it even possible to accomplish this? Did I miss something in the tutorial? If this is not possible, is there a better way I could be doing this? The reason I am compiling .java files and deploying them is simply to test a few things, as I am in the process of learning JSP and Tomcat. Thanks for any advice you can give, Dan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
