Hello everybody! I have Tomcat 4.x as Web Server and I would like to to the following two things but I don't know how to do:
1) I need to share the same Servlet Context "MyContext" between all the servlets and jsp-pages of my web application. 2) I would like that my web server does something when an event happens in the servlet context "MyContext". 3) I would like to show to the user an html page of mine when a Tomcat's error happens (for example: "Page not found"). The problem is that I don't know how to set Tomcat to do this. I explain better the meaning of first two points: The thing I would like to do is the following one: every time a user connects to my servlet (or jsp-page) called "MyServlet" I create a session (an HttpSession object). After creating it I put this session in the MyServlet's Context (let's call it "MyContext"): in this way I can count (using a counter "MyCounter" that I also insert in "MyContext" together with the user's session) the users connected to my web application. All the servlets and jsp pages of my web application should share the Context "MyContext". When I user disconnects from my web application I decrease "MyCounter" and when "MyCounter" reaches the value 0 the web server Tomcat should execute a java class (let's suppose it is called "MyClass") that does something (now it is not important to explain what it does). Instead when a user disconnects from my web application but the counter "MyCounter" doesn't reach the value 0 the Web Server Apache should execute another Java class (let's suppose it is called "MySecondClass"). All the other servlets and jsp-pages of my web application can use the counter "MyCounter" to do some other checks: this is the reason why I must share the context "MyContext". How can I set my Web Server Tomcat 4.x to do all this? What Java Servlet API must I use? Thank you very much everybody in advance (above all for the patience!).
