Hi Remy,

I want to go the other way and decrease the number of servlets created
due to the heavy amount of objects hanging off each of these servlets.

What I have done is modify the addInitParameter method to look for an
init parameter "stm-max-instances" thus allowing the parameter to be
placed in the web.xml as a servlet init parameter.

Do you see any problems with using the approach (code below).

------------------------

package test.tomcat;

import org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper;

public class STMStandardWrapper extends StandardWrapper {
  
  private static final String MAX_STM_INSTANCES_INIT_PARAMETER =
"stm-max-instances";
  
  public STMStandardWrapper() {
    super();
  }
  
  public void addInitParameter(String name, String value) {
    super.addInitParameter(name, value);

    if (MAX_STM_INSTANCES_INIT_PARAMETER.equals(name)) {

      try {

        int max = Integer.parseInt(value);

        System.out.println("Override default max instances for servlet" 
            + getServletName() 
            + "(" 
            + getServletClass() 
            + ") to " 
            + value);

        super.setMaxInstances(max);

      } catch (NumberFormatException nfe) {
        System.out.println("Servlet init parameter '" 
            + MAX_STM_INSTANCES_INIT_PARAMETER 
            + "' for servlet " 
            + getServletName() 
            + "(" 
            + getServletClass() 
            + ") was not an integer (" 
            + value 
            + ")");
      }
    }
  }
}

------------------------


Kind regards
James McIntosh
