Determine that application is running under application server?

This is not a 'standard' way but what I did was to try to load a Class of the AppServer For WAS: try{ Class cl = Thread. GetContextClassLoader(). LoadClass("com.ibm.websphere.runtime.

ServerName") found } not Found catch(Throwable) { } For Tomcat: "org.apache.catalina. Xxx Etc Let me know what you think.

JBoss AS sets a lot of diffrent system properties: jboss.home. Dir jboss.server. Name You can check other properties using for example VisualVM or other tools.

I don't know other servers but I think you can find some kind of properties for each of them.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
