? for web-applications

[thomas Fuchs]

hi all,

i've got a simple web-app that drops into tomcat (using tomcat 5 & 6).

what i am trying to do is when the web-app or war file is dropped into
tomcat and is automatically deployed/exploded i want a particular class
to be initialized or object to be instantiated.

anyone know how to do this?
will i need to use spring ....

thanks for any help

My pleasure.

All posts in this forum are ?'s on web apps, which is why your subject isn't distinctive.
