I like that Tomcat ships with a manager application bundled with it. If you need more functionality, you can look at psi probe https://code.google.com/p/psi-probe/, or write your own application that wraps the RESTish interface that the manager application provides.
I just wish the default manager application was easier to theme, or tweak a few things. I resorted to a servlet filter at my $JOB to color a few things depending on the environment you are on (test vs prod, etc), along with a few other things. Commons Monitoring looks similar to https://code.google.com/p/javamelody/. -- Larry On Mon, Aug 26, 2013 at 2:16 PM, Romain Manni-Bucau <rmannibu...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi > > i wonder for some times if tomcat GUI couldn't be externalized in another > project.
