Well, I figured out the answer to my second question (accessing the vars set
in JRUN mgmt console). These values must be accessed with the
getInitParameter method apparently. I am still trying to figure out the
global.jsa thing though.
This all brings me to a conceptual question. When one desires to set
initial values for application-scope variables, what is the best approach.
Coming from ASP, I tend to favor the global.jsa approach since it mirrors
the global.asa so directly. Setting values for variables directly within the
management console is cleaner though. I am sure there are a multitude of
other options as well. Does anyone have any opinions on the best approach
in this regard?
Thanks.

Subject: [JSP-INTEREST] RE : JRUN : global.jsa
I am attempting to use the global.jsa file for JRUN, in order to localize my
settings. ...But it's not working. Could someone please take a look and
tell me what I am missing. I can't find *ANY* documentation or examples
outside of the 1 page that covers the topic in the JRun manual.
Here's the global.jsa file:
<%! public void applicationInit() {
String myStr = new String("hello world!");
application.setAttribute("testVar",myStr );
}%>
<%! public void applicationDestroy() {
System.out.println("The intranet is temporarily not available.");
}%>
Here's the error that I am recieving:
Could not instantiate jrun__global2ejsab
java.lang.NullPointerException
...
and then it gives the whole stack dump.
Any thoughts?
Also, I have tried setting application variables through the interface of
JRUN as it would seem to provide the opportunity to do, but (while I don't
get an error) I can't actually access these values.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
Neal
