Subject: RE: How to run own java application within Tomcat
Hi Johnny,
Thanks for the answer but I think I didn't explain my problem correctly.
I need the following situation:
1. a java application has to run continiously outside tomcat (when tomcat
crashes the application must be still running). This application runs in
its own virtual >machine (VM1).
when tomcat crashes... you have no faith ha ha... its tomcat, nothing
fishy about it ;)
2. I have also Axis2 webservices that have to have access to the objects in
VM1. These webservices run inside Tomcat. However Tomcat runs in its own
virtual >machine (VM2). So I have a problem.
Yes you do ;)
Question:
How to be able to run the java appplication (outside tomcat), and the Axis2
webservices (inside tomcat), in the same virtual machine
As soon as you have applicatios in different VMs, you into interprocess
communications, RMI or the like.
Even if that is not true, and its TC and an external app in the same VM, you
have "ring fenced" class loader problems.
TC keeps itself away from the rest of the machine, which is actually a good
thing, else we'd all go insane.
Using traditional Java technology its going to be something like RMI, or
another cross process technique like sockets (your own rmi).
So soap call comes into TC, TC chats to external application thru a socket,
(or like the other poster suggested) an embedded TC app that also has soap
(a lot of work I think).
So thats what you got to do...
The POJO Application Server approach to this you may find interesting, but
its probably not want you want
TC(Application inside TC) ----------- Application used from Network or
Internet (looks like the original app to the user)
--------------------------------------- TC(Soap Application Using
Application inside another TC, or the same TC)
Thats how it would be done in a PAS.... but its inside TC and well, you
think TC is going to "crash"... we used to be friends ;)
Have fun....
