Jeffrey,
You need to make sure your FactoryBean returns false for the isSingleton and
you might want to add lazy-load as well.  (I think singleton=false implies
lazy load, but I'm not sure)

Hi Tom,
I have tried your suggestion, my applicationContex.xml is now defined
as,

<bean id="scFactoryBean" class="StrutsServletContextLoader"/>
     <bean id="servletCtx" factory-bean="scFactoryBean" factory-
method="getServletContext"/>

     <bean id="userService" class="user.RdfUserService">
                <constructor-arg index="0">
                        <bean
class="org.springframework.web.context.support.ServletContextResource">
                                <constructor-arg index="0"
ref="servletCtx"/>
                                <constructor-arg index="1" type="
java.lang.String" value="/
resources/users.rdf"/>
                        </bean>
                </constructor-arg>
     </bean>


my StrutsServletContextLoader class consists of one method

public ServletContext getServletContext() {
                return ServletActionContext.getServletContext();
        }

i am getting error from spring complaining missing servlet context.

You mentioned ServletActionContext needs to the executed within the
context of a webwork request, i think the problem is related to that.
Do you know how can i make my StrutsServletcontextLoader be executed
within a webwork request?

many thanks

Jeff
