: Nice. Is the same doable under Jetty? (never had to deal with JNDI : under Jetty)
i haven't tried it personally, but according to Yoav "reading" JNDI options is part of hte Servlet Spec, and billa found a refrene to useing "<env-entry>" to do so... http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-multiple-solr-webapps-p3991310.html ...where exactly that option goes in Jetty's configuration isn't something i'm clear on. : ----- Original Message ---- : From: Chris Hostetter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org : Sent: Friday, September 8, 2006 1:46:19 AM : Subject: Re: SolrCore as Singleton? : : : : I am currently in the startup phase of my thesis regarding open source : : and enterprise search.
