Hello, I'm using Tomcat 7.0 for developing a new application. A key component in the application have to run an external not multithreaded application.
Since I'm not an experienced user in Tomcat, I wonder which implementation alternatives do you recommend for running my external application. I'm trying to avoid launch a new os process from java since I need the result of that process, so in this way I've to deal communicating two processes (may be using serializable objects using sockets). I want to know which kind of approachs are used to deal with these type of situations. Thanks in advance. Regards, Hernán
