Can't Netbeans bounce the Tomcat JVM for you? If this is just in development, why not just wrap System.loadLibrary() in a try/catch block and ignore the exception you get when re-loading the native library? This just seems like it would be a lot of work for not much gain. >> If you deploy no webapps, how long does it take Tomcat to start up? > > It takes about 10 seconds to shut down and start up a new instance. With no webapps deployed at all? Wow, something is not right. Are you sure you have enough memory installed on your dev instance? > Starting > up a new instance is fairly quick. Shutting down takes a while. That seems strange... do you have a complicated shutdown procedure for your webapp? Tomcat shuts down on my end in very short order when no webapps need to be undeployed. > When restarting a webapp, we don't have to wait for the old instance to > finish shutting down (which is slow) before transferring access to another > Tomcat instance.

So... you want Tomcat to also notify a 3rd-party that it's being shut down so that a proxy can re-configure itself? > The only snag I can think of is that the old instance might > keep files locked on disk (but I think this is no longer the case with > Tomcat 7.x) I don't believe Tomcat locks anything specific. Under certain situations, the JVM and the OS conspire to lock certain resources (usually .jar files) and that can be a problem. If you're starting a new instance in parallel, wouldn't you want to do it from a separate directory anyway? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk330RgACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCH6ACfTAZ1m0wSocjfvnfLeYHegzbd BJAAoLAFzIa5fQ/V/k3GYFPtUw6qKjm2 =/62c -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
