load-on-startup parameter question

[andrejx]

Hi,
Does anybody know how to specify servlet load order for Tomcat 4.0.1. I'm trying to use load-on-startup with different positive integer values, but cannot make it working properly.

Thanks,
AX

Hi to all,

   load-on-startup tag specifies that the servlet should be loaded automatically when the web application is started.

          The value is a single positive integer, which specifies the loading order. Servlets with lower values are loaded before servlets with higher values (ie: a servlet with a load-on-startup value of 1 or 3 is loaded before a servlet with a value of 5 or 7).
