I think you can use the interface
javax.servlet.ServletContextListener.In you implementation's method
contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent<file:///E:/java/api/j2eeri-1_4-doc-api/apidocs/javax/servlet/ServletContextEvent.html>
sce),you can parse these configuration files and save the parsing result in
the application scope,for example:
sce.getServletContext().setAttribute("linkedlist",linkedlist);
then when you want to the linkedlist,you can get the ServletContext,and call
its getAttribute().

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.
Thanks
