Hi All, We have a situtation where we need to crawl various sites/databases for information to perform a search. The most efficient way is to multithread the application as we all know. Since J2EE discourages custom Multithreading, we had to search for alternatives to accomplish this task. We came across few interesting solutions using JMS/MDB. Other than using these is there a simpler way to accomplish this. Any help is appreciated... Thanks, Srini

The search request comes from a JSP to the servlet...

Did you consider concurrent package in JDK 1.5 and above? I use it in application similar what you described. Check last link in my signature.

Thanks Dema, But we are using Jdk1.4 and do not have the option to upgrade to 1.5 (atleast for now)... Is there a 3rd party package I could use similar to the package available in Jdk1.5

There is a backport of concurrent package and we use it with a great success on JDk 1.4. Use JSR166 backport version from: http://www.mathcs.emory.edu/dcl/util/backport-util-concurrent/
