Summary: Static utility methods in Tomcat should be instance methods Product: Tomcat 7 Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Integration AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org ReportedBy: david_s...@hotmail.com --- Comment #0 from Dave Syer <david_s...@hotmail.com> 2009-09-11 02:09:00 PDT --- Why are the static addServlet() methods in Tomcat static? I can see they don't use any state from the instance, but isn't it cleaner to use an instance method, so that the API is uniform (everything I want to do to a tomcat instance goes through the instance)? It would be more consistent to follow the pattern of addServlet(String,String,String), and search for the context by name instead of requiring the instance to be passed in to a static method. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
