Thats right,
I've got this client program that runs as a series of JSP pages
and a few servlets. I want to distribute just my web application on
the keychains, and then have Tomcat5 installed on all the machines
that will run the client program. I know I can setup a Tomcat context
to point to a directory OTHER then in the /webapps folder. So I want
to point to my webapp stored on the keychain drive, but when Tomcat
loads the keychain wont be attached so it wont be able to load that
context on startup. If a user plugs his/her keychain drive in and the
directory then becomes valid, will tomcat know enough to then load-up
the context? (Does it rescan the server.xml file, like it does the
web.xml files?)
Also, what would be the consequences of having the user pull out the
keychain drive, thus making the web application unavailable to Tomcat.
Will tomcat be able to recognize and gracefully handle that?
Thanks everyone,
Greg
