I agree with you - an app server without EJB. And with Spring framework and the like, you rarely need EJB any more. But that might start a flame war!! ;-)

Some may argue with me, but I would consider Tomcat an app server. JBoss happens to be an EJB container as well as a servlet container (and provides some other services as well), while Tomcat provides only the servlet container and some directory services. > However, if I had a component that was not a web application and I > wanted to start it inside tomcat how could I do that ? > Is there some configuration file I would need to add something to in > order to have a component started and would I need to implement some > Tomcat interface to do it? What do you want to run inside of Tomcat that is not a web application? Tomcat is basically a web application container, so I'm not sure what else you'd want to run. -chris (See attached file: signature.asc)
