+
+<P>This approach register a context listener on the application web.xml that will bootstrap the runtime when the web-app is started, and closes the runtime when the web-app is shutdown.</P>
+
+<P>Necessary updates in web.xml</P>
+<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">

+&lt;/listener&gt;
+</PRE>
+</DIV></DIV>
+
+<P>Then, once this integration part is defined, developers only need to get a reference to the SCADomain in their JSP and then get a reference to a service and start consuming it<BR>
+Below, you can find the JSP code snippet to get a SCARuntime reference :</P>
+<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
+<PRE class="code-java">
+SCADomain domain = (SCADomain) application.getAttribute(<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;org.apache.tuscany.sca.SCADomain&quot;</SPAN>);
+</PRE>
+</DIV></DIV>
+
+<P>In order to use this approach, you will need to specify a sca-contribution.xml inside the META-INF directory of your web-app, this file will be used to identify the root of the contribution as well as the list of deployable composites.</P>
+
+<P>Here is a sample sca-contribution.xml used in the calculator-web application:</P>
+
+<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
+<PRE class="code-java">
+&lt;?xml version=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;1.0&quot;</SPAN> encoding=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;UTF-8&quot;</SPAN>?&gt;
+&lt;contribution xmlns=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;http:<SPAN class="code-comment">//www.osoa.org/xmlns/sca/1.0&quot;</SPAN>&gt;
+</SPAN> &lt;deployable composite=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;Calculator&quot;</SPAN>/&gt;
+&lt;/contribution&gt;
+</PRE>
+</DIV></DIV>
+
+
+<P>Tuscany also supports the scenario where you would drop the SCA composite files inside the META-INF\sca-deployables directory, and this would also be used to identify the root of the contribution and the list of deployable composites.</P>
+
+<P><B>pros</B>: Consistent programming model between JSP and Servlets<BR>
+<B>cons</B>: require web.xml integration and sca-contribution.xml, although the trend is to make web apps simpler and web.xml is optional in newer specs of J2EE</P>
+
+<H2><A name="TuscanySCAWebApplicationIntegrationStory-IntegratingusingpureJSPcode"></A>Integrating using pure JSP code</H2>
+
+<P>Integration using useBean tag: This approach would be very simple, and would basically ask the developer to add a useBean to instantiate the domain, and a setProperty to set the deployableComposite/</P>
+<DIV class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><DIV class="codeContent panelContent">
+<PRE class="code-java">
+&lt;jsp:useBean id=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;SCADomain&quot;</SPAN> class=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;org.apache.tuscany.host.embedded.SCADomainBean&quot;</SPAN> scope=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;application&quot;</SPAN>&gt;
+ &lt;jsp:setProperty property=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;deployableComposite&quot;</SPAN> value=<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;Calculator.composite&quot;</SPAN> /&gt;
+&lt;/jsp:useBean&gt;

+&lt;%
+ SCADomain domain = (SCADomain) application.getAttribute(<SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;SCADomain&quot;</SPAN>);
+ CalculatorService calculatorService = domain.getService(CalculatorService.class, <SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;CalculatorServiceComponent&quot;</SPAN>);
+%&gt;
+</PRE>
+</DIV></DIV>
+<P>Optional attributes can be defined by using the &lt;jsp:setProperty&gt; calls, if no attributes are specified, the sca-contribution.xml will be used to hint the root of the contribution as well as to find the deployable composites.</P>
+
+<P>In this scenario, the SCADomain is stopped when the application goes out of scope and the garbage collection process the termination of the SCADomain.</P>
+
+<P><B>pros</B>: simple, does not involve changes on web.xml<BR>
+<B>cons</B>: leaves toping the sca domain/runtime to when garbage collection process the application scope bean, also introduce different programming model between JSP and Servlets.</P>
