Subject: running! a servlet at tomcat startup


This issue is a classic one already I think. I've googled it and haven't found anything that could help solving this problem. I'm probably not the one to think about this but...if you would add the <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> to a servlet, and from the init() method you would somehow try to call the doGet() method, wouldn't that do it? wouldn't that run the servlet at startup? did anybody try this already? I am trying to do this but I'm having some problem creating HttpServletRequest and Response objects so I can call doGet(). So if anyone did this already, pls let me know how this issue can be fixed! 10x a lot!

Hi  loredana,
Not sure if you asking or answering ;)

Yes, <load-on-startup> and then do stuff in the INIT method.
No, why try call doGet().... just init the functions that need initing, like the dBPool, or image processing.
The doGet implies you want to return info to a browser.... there isnt one?
The Init method runs just once.... thats the idea.
<load-on-startup> just lets you get the INIT out of the way, otherwise it will happen on the first browser request, and if it takes a long time the browser will seem very slow to the user... but that only happens once anyway.
????????
