Is there any way we could figure out in code the environment where EAR is deployed?

I am facing an issue in my restlet project where I have to code some operations only if the EAR is deployed in Websphere in a restlet server project. Is there any way we can get information through code to find out where is EAR/WAR deployed? (Is the EAR is deployed in Websphere or Tomcat or other servers).

If you only need to check that for example in Servlet/Filter class you can look for servlet context attributes related to WebSphere, for example com.ibm.websphere.servlet.application.name = Default Web Application. You can find some attributes looi=king at the /snoop servlet if you have that installed.

Or, as Bruce suggested try to load some WebSphere class and be prepared for errors when they are not there.

Try to instantiate some WebSphere API class. If you get a NoClassDefFound, it's probably not running on WebSphere. You might have to do class.forName(Websphere class), so your code will compile outside websphere.
