I seem to be having an issue :)
I tried the code you provided and did this.
I am getting a null pointer when I ask for service. Also if I do
server.findServices() to get a list of all of them I get nothing back.
This is from withing a Servlet to test getting these objects.
//See if we can get the container object
Server server = ServerFactory.getServer();
Service service = server.findService("Catalina");
//Next line gets NULL Pointer, because service is not found
Engine engine = (Engine) service.getContainer();
Host host = (Host) engine.findChild(engine.getDefaultHost());
Container[] containers = host.findChildren();
for (int i = 0; i < containers.length; i++) {
Container container = containers[i];
out.println("<!-- Found Container::"+container.getName());
}
