I have a web app that uses JMX to start and stop other webapps. I am
using JMX to do this. By poking around, I found this MBean on the
Tomcat MBeanServer:
Catalina:j2eeType=WebModule,name=//localhost/jsp-examples,J2EEApplicatio
n=none,J2EEServer=none which exposes stop(), start() and other methods.
This works to start and stop the jsp-examples webapp.
My Question: Is this officially documented anywhere? What risk am I
taking on relying on those MBeans being there? A problem with this
approach is if I call the destroy() method, the MBean itself disappears
so there is no way to reload the WebApp.
I was expecting to find an MBean for the Manager that might support a
method start("/jsp-examples") but I didn't find it.
Thanks
