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 On Thu, 2007-02-22 at 03:57 +0100, Rémy Maucherat wrote: > On 2/22/07, James McIntosh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I am trying to find out how to limit the number of Single Threaded Model > > servlets which get created by the StandardWrapper. > > > > I have looked at the API and there is a setMaxInstances(int) method but > > I cannot find anywhere in the config xml files to change it. > > I did find the "wrapperClass" attribute for the <Context> element which > > allows you to override StandardWrapper with another class which I could > > call the setMaxInstances from. > > Nobody asked for configuration of this before.
