Yet another example, Weld is using similar tricks to integrate with Tomcat: https://github.com/weld/core/blob/master/environments/servlet/core/src/main/java/org/jboss/weld/environment/tomcat/WeldForwardingInstanceManager.java#L97 ```java // Hack into Tomcat to replace the InstanceManager using // reflection to access private fields ApplicationContext appContext = (ApplicationContext) getContextFieldValue((ApplicationContextFacade) context, ApplicationContextFacade.class); ``` It's not the average application that needs this, but libs like Weld (CDI) or Soteria (Jakarta Security) definitely have a need for this. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
