Detection of redeployment?

[mattinvs]

Hello!
Is there any way how an application can detect (and then react) on a redeployment? I thought there might exist some mechanism like the shutdownHook for the JVM...

Probably this can give you an idea:

Thanks, that's interesting.
But meanwhile I found a more generic approach:
In the StartupServlet that I use for initialization tasks I implement a destroy() method, which then executes cleanup tasks. The servlet's destroy method is automatically invoked by the container (and I remain J2EE-server independent, because I do not. use JBoss-specific features).
