Hi Chris cb> I was thinking of a servlet request (or something) that is called on cb> startup that could also be called later on-demand(?).
cs> How would you trigger that servlet to be called on startup? cs> Some kind of script that does catalina.sh && sleep $time cs> && curl http://example.com/load-stuff ?? cs> How would you determine the value of $time? What if it fails? Pfft, beats me. :-) I was just grasping at straws, apparently. cs> You can also use thread-safe classes which either implement cs> their thread-safety in one of a few different ways, synchronized cs> blocks being one of those strategies. Got any buzzwords for me that I can lookup "one of a few different ways", other than synchronized blocks? cs> "freshen" the data from the database if it had been altered by cs> some other process e.g. an update from a database where new cs> content is added, then migrated into production via direct SQL cs> drop. So it really was a "reload" operation. These days, it's an cs> "unload" operation. :) I was wondering about that. Sounds like it basically invalidates the cache so it can be reloaded later when needed. -- Cris Berneburg CACI Senior Software Engineer ________________________________ This electronic message contains information from CACI International Inc or subsidiary companies, which may be company sensitive, proprietary, privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure.
