Why a Swing app stops my Java servlet ?
- by Frank
I have a Swing runnable app which updates messages, then I have a Java servlet that gets messages from Paypal IPN (Instant Payment Notification), when the servlet starts up, in the init(), I starts the Swing runnable app which opens a desktop window, but 30 minutes later an error in the Swing caused the servlet to stop, how can that happen ? Because the runnable is running on it's own thread, servlet started that thread, why an error in that thread will cause the servlet to stop ?
public class License_Manager extends JPanel implements Runnable
{
License_Manager()
{
Do_GUI();
...
start();
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Schedule a job for the event-dispatching thread : creating and showing this application's GUI.
javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { public void run() { Create_And_Show_GUI(); } });
}
}
public class PayPal_Servlet extends HttpServlet
{
public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException
{
super.init(config);
License_Manager.main(null);
}
protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request,HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException,IOException
{
}
}
And besides the error don't even have anything to do with my code, it looks like this :
