You could have a servlet that is called "StartUp_ShutDown" use <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> to start it and everything that needs to be done on start up put in the init() method, and then when tomcat is shutdown it will call the destroy() method.
One suggestion, probably others. Nicholas Orr -----Original Message----- From: RP C987342 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 25 September 2002 6:37 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: webapp shutdown My webapp needs to know when Tomcat shuts down in order to do some cleanup. How can I do this? For startup, I am using the following tag in my web.xml <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> Is this the correct method? Or is there a way to register startup/shutdown classes with Tomcat? _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ********************************************************************** The information contained in this e-mail is confidential and is intended only for the use of the addressee(s).
