Change http port in Oracle XE

For my current project I had to install tomcat as a j2ee server in Eclipse. It would not start since the Oracle XE database has port 8080 in use.

I found the method to change the ports in XE here. From that example I created my own little script:
set serveroutput on

select dbms_xdb.gethttpport as "HTTP-Port"
,      dbms_xdb.getftpport as "FTP-Port" 
from dual;

declare
  new_port varchar2(4):='8085';
begin

 dbms_output.put_line('Change HTTP Port to '||new_port);
 dbms_xdb.sethttpport(new_port);
end;
/

select dbms_xdb.gethttpport as "HTTP-Port"
,      dbms_xdb.getftpport as "FTP-Port" 
from dual; 


In good old Dutch: "Mucho Plezieros" with it...
