If I understand, destroy() should be called when the servlet container (i.e
Tomcat) is shutdown.
But, in my small application, destroy() seems not to be called so that
information cannot be
written database.xml.
I didn't manage to find where my error is.
Thanks

The destroy() method is called by the servlet container, when it removes
this
servlet from service or when the application is shut down. Typically,
server
shutdown is the *only* time that a servlet is removed and destroy() is
called.

This is done by adding <init-param> entries in the WEB-INF/web.xml file.
See
the Servlet API Specification, version 2.2, for the details -- you can
download
it at:
http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html
There are also a growing number of articles and books covering the servlet
2.2
API that discusses this kind of thing. I would try looking for "web.xml" in
your favorite search engine, as a starting point.
