What's ActiveObject ?
Do you have a website which describe this kind of object ?

Coz' i want to access different host like a database, a 3270 host, and so
on... So that's interesting to fire x appservers in parallel !

thanx
regards
Franck

As was suggested you can deploy a ActiveObject Pattern with Futur-Pattern
for results. Then suppose you have more than one ActiveObject which for
example access different Application-Servers on different hosts each.
With that approach you can fire x remote methods on the y appl. servers in
parallel. Then you are "set to wait" until all results are computed by a
wait() in all Future.getResult();
For ActiveObject and Future Pattern read "Pattern oriented SW Architecture:
Concurrent and Network Objects" (Buschmann, Stal, ...) And Doug Leas book
about multithreading

Betreff: Re: Fw: question on thread in servlet

There is also a question of why would you want to create another thread.
  The servlet thread in itself is new and you probably want to send a
response back anyway so you'll wait for whatever processing you need to
do so why create a separate thread?

I understand situations such as that I explained in earlier e-mail in
response to this same question (you seem to be reposting this which
isn't nice :).

In simple terms: There should be no problem if you need to have your
servlets interact with some system using queues and wait/notify that
interact with separate threads but you should not need to create
separate threads from within servlets.
