Have been looking at the source, although not documented (for TC5.5), it seems that it is possible to nest a Listener element (org.apache.catalina.LifecycleListener) under the Server element as http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html described here for nesting within Context elements. This could be used to provide a more elegant way of receiving notification of when the server has stopped.
However, still not synchronous, looking at JMX for that, seems like I just need to invoke StandardServer.stop() Christopher Schultz-2 wrote: > >> Is there a synchronous method for stopping Tomcat, i.e. one that won't >> return until the ports have been released at least? > > Not that I know of.
