Excellent Advice-

and use ConfigurationContext as your Context parameter for init() and destroy() methods
Take a look at this excellent tutorial-

You can code your service to implement service lifecycle semantics:
init(ServiceContext sc)
destroy(ServiceContext sc)
 
If your service is configured with scope="application" (service.xml), then your init() will be called once when your service is loaded and once when your application is destroyed.  You can then perform your DB connections and any other one time initialization more conveniently.

Subject: [Axis2] How to perform startup initialization?

I'm getting started with Axis 2 and am looking to perform some initialization when axis2 starts up.  Specifically, I'm looking to configure a database pool and a couple of other resource pools that will be shared by web services.
 
In a servlet, I do this by creating a servlet listener, configuring the pool objects and dropping them into the servlet context.
 
I assume that I should be looking at the Service Group or Configuration Context to store the pools.  I also tried creating an AxisObserver, but I don't seem to be able to access the contexts.
 
How can I create a method that's called when axis2 starts up and has access to these contexts?
 
Thanks,
Dave
