[Webware-discuss] several questions about webware

[lloyd <sub...@tw...>]

hello all -


these questions are based on my recent experiences with webware 0.8.1

1) is there a facility for running code on server start-up, and storing 
application-wide data (eg, say, a database connection pool manager)?

2) in a java servlet container like tomcat, each context is analagous to 
a separate application.  in webware, this separation doesn't seem to 
exist.  each context appears to be, basically, just a mapping of a URL 
segment to a directory.  should i run a separate application server 
instance for each application that needs "separation" from other 
applications?

3) are there examples or documentation for using webware, formkit, and 
cheetah together in an optimal way?

4) if one is using cheetah, are the separate writeXXX() methods in a 
servlet really useful, considering that most of that information may be 
in the templates?


thanks!
