Hi

You mentioned XML - use some existing library that works with XML.

A 3rd party Client S/w of C++ sends an XML string over socket

This socket is be defined and read by *Process* of web application



You are not having a problem with a Tomcat installation.

TOMCAT 6.0.2.0
JDK 1.6.0
O/s  Linux / Unix / Windows


Why are you determined to use a Socket?
Soap over HTTP (Approached was not recommended by the existing client s/w


You are not stating what you've tried.
With a Load on Startup servlet tried to listen to the socket,which does not work
What went wrong? There is no reason why such a thing should not work. Just instantiate a static class/Thread which listens on a port. I don't understand your problem. It is the same as a standalone program except you are starting your class differently.

Just jumping in here for a minute..
Isn't there some fundamental logical problem here ?
Unless I am mistaken, we are talking about a webapp running under Tomcat. This webapp is being run when there is a request (in principle, a HTTP request) received by Tomcat, whose URL matches one that the webapp is mapped to. Now if that webapp gets started, somehow, and even if it starts listening on a socket (separate from the Tomcat Connector listening sockets), isn't that socket not going to be listening anymore when that webapp, somehow, stops running ? I fail to see the inherent logic in running something like this under Tomcat. I mean, even if somehow it works, what is the benefit of running this under a servlet engine ?
Should this not be instead a stand-alone application ?


That is something everybody except the OP is wondering about. :-)

Ronald.
