In some cases in may be necessary incorporate the cajo project into an existing

J2EE

project so that one can re-use existing objects and classes.

In such a scenario it would be nice to have a servlet load and configure the cajo

ItemServer

at the same time the

J2EE

application loads.

This is accomplished by using the

CajoServlet

wrapper which loads a cajo configuration from xml and bind as set of items to the

ItemServer

Installation

These steps assume that you have a

J2EE

server available along with appropriate jars to build a

J2EE

project. Specifically you will require a

HTTPServlet

implementation and a

DomParser

implementation. The current code was tested against

OC4J

and

Xerces

Download the CajoServlet Archive
Unzip the archive into your source tree
Compile, making sure that your classes end up in the WEB-INF/classes folder
Create a cajo servlet config file (see cajo.xml in archive) and deploy into your runtime environment in WEB-INF/classes
Modify your web.xml (see sample in archive) to load the cajo servlet
Restart your server and the
```
CajoServlet
```
should automatically configure and start the cajo
```
ItemServer
```

Roadmap

Add support to start a codebase server from config file
Add support for three parm binding i.e.
```
ItemServer
```
.bind(item, name, proxy)
Other cool or useful stuff that comes along
