at this point, you can go in and mess with the source code. If you look at the class StandardServer, it sends out an event before shutting down
you would get the server by ServerFactory.getServer().addListener (check the names of the methods) Filip -----Original Message----- From: Frank Lawlor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 11, 2003 11:27 AM To: Tomcat Subject: RE: How to listen for shutdown Let me try to explain this better, The problem seems to be that Tomcat is shutting down the asynchronous threads BEFORE I can cleanly tell them to shutdown (from my servlet contextDestroyed() method). I tried getting control with finalize() in the thread instance, but this didn't seem to get called. In general there should be some way to cleanly shutdown the entire app before Tomcat starts destructing threads and instances. I cannot put a web.xml entry for the thread since it is not a servlet.
