Hi,

During the shutdown sequence of my Web Application I would like to have some code 
executed. I implemented the destroy() method of a Servlet and implemented a 
ServletContextListener.

Both of these get called when the application is reloaded.
But neither of these is called when I shutdown Tomcat.

Shouldn't these methods get called no matter how the servlet is being taken out of 
service:

<quote>
Called by the servlet container to indicate to a servlet that the servlet is being 
taken out of service. This method is only called once all threads within the servlet's 
service method have exited or after a timeout period has passed. After the servlet 
container calls this method, it will not call the service method again on this servlet.

This method gives the servlet an opportunity to clean up any resources that are being 
held (for example, memory, file handles, threads) and make sure that any persistent 
state is synchronized with the servlet's current state in memory. </quote>


I am using Tomcat 5.0.24
This is on Windows 2K/XP
Using And controlling Tomcat using the Tomcat Monitor.

Regards,

Johan Philippe
