> What happens if our application defines a static class or > other resource? Not sure what you mean by "static class", unless you're referring to an inner class. Regardless, each parallel deployment uses a separate classloader, so the webapp instances cannot interfere with each other. However, if you've placed classes in a shared library (e.g., Tomcat's lib directory), anything in there will be shared by all webapps. You must be very, very careful when utilizing shared classes, since that can easily lead to unexpected data leakage between webapps (not to mention often making it impossible to undeploy them). - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
