hi zart -
attached is a bit of info briefly describing the default.cfg fields.
check out the etc/SimpleStartup.java file for an idea as to an
embedded server. i believe you'll want to checkout the
javax.servlet.Servlet.init() method (eg. a family/webapp of servlets
could reference a singleton service from within the init method ... or
coordinate via the javax.servlet.ServletContext). the invoker is a
on/off flag to allow/disallow servlet execution ... having servlets on
(invoker=true) is a good thing but doing so does open up host systems
to security risks if programmer with that in mind, hence the invoker
master switch to turn 'em all off.
also, the next release config info is in xml ... same data but it should
be a bit more human parsable, easy to add new webapp contexts,
extend, etc.
hope this helps,
- james

hi paul -
with regards to item 1:
the default.cfg file is a means by which to configure service
options prior to startup. that other means is command line
(eg. startserver -help). the options are:
server.port the port the http service will be
listening on once started
server.hostname the server's host name
server.inet the server's ip address
server.docbase the directory name which will be used
to resolve the default "/" resource
server.workdir a scratch work dir
# note: multiple tuples of the following can be added
server.webapp.foo.mapping=/bar
a named resource
server.webapp.foo.docbase=bar
the directory name which will be used
to resolve requests for the afore mentioned
mapping resource
without changing a thing, you should be able to start the server:
% startserver
and view the "home page" at:
http://localhost:8080/
if you change one or more of the afore mentioned configurations
you can adjust the url accordingly to see the results.
the remainder of your questions are better served on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
so i stop at this point.
hope this helps,
