Re: Servlet needs to run till the lifetime of Webserver

2001-03-28 Thread Steve Weiss

Create a servlet which implements the Runnable interface. In this
servlet's init() method create and start a Thread which does whatever
processing you need.

To load it when the servlet container starts, add something like this to
web.xml:

 
 myServlet
 com.foo.MyServlet
 1

Re: Servlet needs to run till the lifetime of Webserver

2001-03-28 Thread Ganesh MohanRao

We are trying to do something similar to Stock and News alert in
"my.yahoo.com".
Stock messages are broadcasted in Tibco. Tibco is a Messaging Component
which is used to broadcast messages.
There needs to be a Engine or Daemon "UP and Running" always to make sure
that it checks the user alert settings as well as listening the the messages
broadcasted from the Tibco.

Whenever user makes any change in the Alert settings, the Engine needs to
get updated. Once the criteria is met, Engine needs to alert the user by
sending e-mail.

This is what the requirement is.

I know I have not clearly explained the scenario.

What I thought is if there is any change in alert info or a new alert info
has been set by the user, it needs to call a servlet which in turn update
the alert informaion to the Engine or Daemon which we thinking of a java
program.

Please suggest me regarding this.

what do you mean by "run"?

By definition, a servlet works in a request/response kind of way. If you
have code
that you want to run in a servlet, and you want the code to run
continuously, I'd
say you generate a request to the servlet at server startup, and write the
servlet
code so that it never completes the request. Of course, you'd have to config
the
server so that it doesn't timeout the request, which gets you into trouble
in cases
where you do want other requests to time out. Please give more insight in
what it
is that you're trying to do with this, so that maybe I can give more to the
point
advice

good luck
Rob

Re: Servlet needs to run till the lifetime of Webserver

2001-03-28 Thread Karau, Joe

Why does it need to be a servlet, why not just create a separate thread to
run while the webserver is running?
