Problem with Multiple Instances of Turbine
It looks like Turbine uses a lot of static/global variables through out
the code. These global variables will cause problems if different Turbine
configurations are used to initialize Turbine by different sites within a
single Tomcat installation. After further investigating the issue, I
found that Turbine attempts to prevent multiple initializations of the
Turbine servlet.
Notice the global firstInit variable. It is set to false after init() is
called by init(ServletConfig config), the standard initialization function
for a servlet. Once it is set to false, all instances of Turbine will run
off of the same configuration. Is this the intent?

Hi,
FWIW, we have deployed multiple webapps that use the Turbine framework in
a single Tomcat container and don't have problems.
