I noticed an odd thing when making a servlet
(ns jms.myservlet (import (javax.servlet.http HttpServlet HttpServletRequest HttpServletResponse)) (:gen-class :extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet)) (defn -init [& args] (println "+++ init ran with args: " args)) (defn -doGet [_ #^HttpServletRequest request #^HttpServletResponse response] (println "+++" "in doGet") (.. response (getWriter) (println (str "<html><body>hello</body></html>")))) I've deployed the above on glassfish, and every time the page is hit the init is run: [#|2010-10-10T14:50:20.116-0400|INFO|glassfish3.0.1| javax.enterprise.system.std.com.sun.enterprise.v3.services.impl| _ThreadID=34;_ThreadName=Thread-1;|+++ init ran with args: (#<myservlet jms.myserv...@38f2601a> #<StandardWrapperFacade org.apache.catalina.core.standardwrapperfac...@49d618db>) |#] [#|2010-10-10T14:50:20.116-0400|INFO|glassfish3.0.1| javax.enterprise.system.std.com.sun.enterprise.v3.services.impl| _ThreadID=34;_ThreadName=Thread-1;|+++ in doGet |#] [#|2010-10-10T14:50:24.572-0400|INFO|glassfish3.0.1| javax.enterprise.system.std.com.sun.enterprise.v3.services.impl| _ThreadID=34;_ThreadName=Thread-1;|+++ init ran with args: (#<myservlet jms.myserv...@38f2601a> #<StandardWrapperFacade org.apache.catalina.core.standardwrapperfac...@49d618db>) |#] [#|2010-10-10T14:50:24.573-0400|INFO|glassfish3.0.1| javax.enterprise.system.std.com.sun.enterprise.v3.services.impl| _ThreadID=34;_ThreadName=Thread-1;|+++ in doGet |#] A servlet is supposed to be run once when the page is loaded and stick around until destroy is called, which is the case with a Java servlet. What am I doing wrong in implementing the servlet, so that the Clojure one is reloaded every time it's accessed? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
