What you are doing will work fine with the servlet example. All it does
is load the JDO initally and set some static data inside the class that
all of the future JDO calls will use. That's why you set the
load-at-startup. I'm doing something similar to you.
Your classes will need to be in /WEB-INF/classes or in jar files in
/WEB-INF/lib. Make sure they are in the correct locations (package name
wise).
