Hi, perhaps memcached-session-manager is an option for you: http://code.google.com/p/memcached-session-manager/
It has integration tests that show how to configure it programatically: https://github.com/magro/memcached-session-manager/blob/master/core/src/test/java/de/javakaffee/web/msm/integration/TestUtils.java#L440 Configuration options are described here: http://code.google.com/p/memcached-session-manager/wiki/SetupAndConfiguration Cheers, Martin On 06/09/2011 03:15 PM, Rüdiger Herrmann wrote: > Hi all, > > I would like to programmatically set up two Tomcat engines and have > them form a basic cluster - all in the same VM.
