Request sent to servlet The documentation for ServletContextListener.contextDestroyed says: " Notification that the servlet context is about to be shut down. All servlets and filters have been destroy()ed before any ServletContextListeners are notified of context destruction. " Assuming that servlets aren't being re-initialized to service new requests, using a ServletContextListener ought to work in this case. I'm happy to hear an explanation for why my assumption isn't true, but this woul dbe my expectation. If your webapp is handling requests after the ServletContextListener.contextDestroyed method is called, I would consider that a violation of the servlet specification. > If you want to add a listener that closes the pool, I would try > adding tomcat lifecycle listener to the context.

I'm guessing that Tomcat's listener would execute after the ServletContextListener, since AFTER_STOP_EVENT indicates that the stop has occurred, while the servlet-API listener says it "is about to be shut down". > Then the vision of J2EE designers of "separation of roles" > materializes :) Something tells me those guys didn't exactly invent the concept of separation of roles. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkrodboACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PAhGQCgooVyE8753TIz635X2lSvZJOV j8cAoJnX6kDBSuBscVlwjEX0kZ5SlAun =u9j7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
