Here is the stack trace: Exception in thread "Thread-17" java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.catalina.connector.CometEventImpl.close(CometEventImpl.java:84) at com.mrtattle.tcniotest.CometServlet$Transport.close(CometServlet.java:42) at com.mrtattle.tcniotest.CometServlet$1.run(CometServlet.java:117) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:613) >> Maybe I am getting something wrong, but I think that the api should >> rather >> reflect a request model, where the end event is triggered when the >> response >> is closed.

I think that the comet api represents a socket connection. The event life cycle is bound to the connection life cycle. You get an END (or ERROR etc) when the connection gets closed. But when you are writing something that still looks like a servlet you would expect that the event life cycle is bound to the request / response model. As soon as the response is closed you would expect an END event.
