Hi Sounds like you're doing something like what I wanted. I extended the RPCProvider to get instances of the service from a factory. It seemed like what the framework expected and works pretty well. The 'interesting' method to override is getServiceObject, and you can register the provider with the WSDDProvider object. I register mine as 'RPC', so every method anyone declares goes through my provider even though I only have factory objects for some. For anything I don't have an object for, I just call super(...). Seems to work like a charm.

Hello all, If I have a service that is APPLICATION scoped, is tehre a way for me to have axis load it upon startup, instead of when the first request comes in? Failing that, is there a way for me to hand a singelton of that service implementation off to axis instead of axis spinning up its own? That would be a work-around of sorts. Thanks in advance!
