I periodically threaten to post my multi-instance Apache Ant scripts to the list. I have recently split my build process into multiple build scripts including a build-tomcat.xml which will manage that kind of thing for you. It's still not a perfect separation, but it allows you to do things like define 'projectname.property=value' in ~/.ant.properties, set <project name="name"> in build.xml, then duplicate the whole thing over and over again. So, I have, for instance, "myproject1.tomcat-port" and "myproject1.tomcat-shutdown-port", etc. and then (near) duplicates for each project. Each developer on a shared dev server gets a batch of port numbers assigned for their own uses and then sets those up accordingly. Each webapp can also have a separate projectX.tomcat-home and projectX.java-home property, so that simply typing 'ant tomcat-start' in any project's directory will build an appropriate CATALINA_BASE (ports and all) for that webapp and then launch the webapp in that instance. All of this requires a fair amount of infrastructure to set up (build scripts, environment-specific server.xml, etc. files, etc.) but once it's done it makes your life sooooo much easier. I can share what I've got, but it will likely require you to heavily modify it to work in your environment since it's so deeply integrated into our complete build process. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk/055sACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCr/QCbBAC4LQmZxoMzdtarFxBXHbb8 qjEAn3ldY08iFkVxlWrEkTLDgfxA7qql =ev/P -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
