I have a web application installed in tomcat 5.5.20 on linux machine which uses spring, hibernate and mule 1.4, I need to configure my application components through XML configuration file. For this I have a Configuration manager which reloads the XML file (comp-config.xml e.g.) and creates a configuration object. The configuration manager uses javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder to parse and create a document out of the xml config file.
1. when I start the web application and immediatly change the config file without accessing configmanager (to load the configuration), the application is able to show the changed configuration. 2. If I start the web application and access the configuration manager for default configuration it show me that, but when I modify the configuration file the application gets reloaded. For this I set the "reload" option in my context file to false, so that even I change the configuration the application doesn't reload. But my problem is that, in scenareo 2, reload is set to false(application not reloaded) and if I change the configuration file or delete the file (comp-config.xml e.g.) the configuration manager still shows the default configuration (note. it is able to read the file even it is deleted). Note : This appication module works fine when run as a stand alone application. 1. how configuration manager(my application component) is able to read the xml file even it is deleted? does tomcat loads the file in memory when xml file is loaded in memory as a XML Document? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Web-application-issue-tp16296486p16296486.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
