Holiday Greetings to All! Quick design question - Is it possible to synchronize an application-scoped object between two servlets within the same web application? I have a servlet that I have written that maintains a List object that is stored in application scope. This servlet basically creates a new List, then replaces the existing one (uses the same name for the object). My second servlet (Struts) simply accesses this List in a read-only fashion - no updates. I can write a basic spin-lock type of mechanism to ensure that my Actions do not try to access this List while my first servlet is replacing the object, but I'm wondering if there is an easier approach, possibly using a synchronized block using the application object....
Comments? TIA!
