Subject: RE: Dynamic Servlet Loading
Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry for not defining my problem clearly.
I want to load completely new servlets in runtime. A concrete example would
be as follows:
- An application is "fooApp" exists under webapps.
- in webapps/fooApp/WEB-INF/web.xml I have one entry for say "Servlet_A"
with a class "Server_A_Impl"
- At a later point in time (while Tomcat is still running) I want to add a
completely new servlet say "Servlet_B" with a class "Servelet_B_Impl" to
web.xml.
- At a later point in time (while Tomcat is still running) I want to add a
another new servlet say "Servlet_C" with a class "Servelet_C_Impl" to
web.xml.
Would Tomcat re-read webapps/fooApp/WEB-INF/web.xml and "deploy" this new
servlets by some means (say by setting reloadable to true) ?
Tomcat reads each web.xml for every web app only when it is started. TC
doesn't read it everytime you make changes it. But as I said instead of
using the name, you could use the class name (and if in a package then
packagename.classname) to access your servlet w/o restarting TC. But trying
to access with the <servlet-name> won't work w/o a restart.
Probably I am missing some basic concept here.
Thanks,
Regards,
ram
Thanks.
