init options

[Mike Phillip]

Hi,

In my app there are more then 3 servlets. And I need to call something like the init() method to config somethings.

But I think the init is only for its servlet, how can I do some init like so that all servlets can use the things I will start in it?

thanks

Research the concept of a context listener.

[Devika Narasimhaiah]

HI...

First write a Listener class which implements ServletContextListener. and
use setAttribute(var,val) and this attribute you can use in all servlets.


otherwise, use context-param tags in web.xml

That also works same.
