Hello to all servlet afficionados, I am following thread discussions already a while and there's always discussion whether to user threads or not (I am not talking about servlet thread but about threads manually instantiated for other reasons like asynchroneous handling of tasks for loose coupling or for long running purposes).
So here's my question: Is is definitely allowed to spawn threads from a servlet (and even put the reference into the application context to allow others to later on access that thread) ? and let a thread to send the response to the web browse by passing th response object to him ? Does the jdk specify on this? Or Is it specific for each servlet engine? Thanks for trying to find out the real truth :-) regards ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
