thanks to all of u. Yeah, I know about weblogic. There is one interface T3StartupDef that has to be implemented.
Anyway, my requirement is to run some background scheduler that should be started at the server start up. Thanks, Sudarson -----Original Message----- From: Christopher K.

These allow you to add hooks at Engine startup and shutdown. You can use Runtime.exec() to execute an external program, or call your server's main() directly if its jar is visible to Tomcat. To make your server's Jar visible to Tomcat, you need to put it (and any other jars it depends on) in either $TOMCAT_HOME/server/lib or $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib. See the classloader howto for further explanation: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html Note that since you are extending the server itself, your code would go in server/lib or common/lib, but not shared/lib. -- Christopher St. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] DistribuTopia http://www.distributopia.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
