In general, you can’t. The Servlet API does not specify when a servlet is unloaded or how the destroy method is called. Your servlet engine (ie the implementation of the interfaces in the JSDK) might provide a way to do this, probably through its administration interface/tool (like Webshpere or JWS). Most servlet engines will also destroy and reload your servlet if they see that the class file(s) have been modified.
