Hi, I setup Tomcat 5.5.17 in Linux Fedora Core 4 and develop a Web Application under /webapps directory.
I have so many configuration files that need to be loaded into my web application. These configuration files are in a self-defined format and I wrote some Java classes to parse these configuration files and save the parsing result in a linked list (java.util.List or java.util.Map). These configuration files are static (not change). In my web application, when a user session created, I call these Java classes to parse these configuration files and save the linked lists into the session. So, every user sessions contain the same set of linked list and, as a result, it reads these files every time when session created (so many I/O access, if many session created as the same time, it will slow down the server). Now, I want to save these linked lists as a global variables in Tomcat so that each JSP and Servlet can access these global variables and reduce I/O access and memory usage. So, would you please tell me how to set global variables in Tomcat and initialize them using the Java classes that I wrote.
