Re: HTTP API and multiple connections

[Scott Klement <web400@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Consider running them in separate activation groups -- then each will 
have its own copy of HTTPAPI.

If you can't do that, then the problem will be any global setting will 
be kept the same.  You've found the exit points, but other things like 
CCSIDs, logs, http_auth settings, etc will be kept. This isn't a problem 
if you set them all before each request (or disable the setting) -- then 
it will work fine, you just have to be careful to avoid settings being 
left over from the last request.
