not sure if this helps, but this is what I did to force the module to
initialize at application startup rather than when the first action is
hit, which is the default behaviour, bit of a hack but it works
extend the struts2 filterdispatcher and use it in the web.xml instead
public class ExtendedFilterDispatcher extends FilterDispatcher {
@Override
public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig) throws ServletException {
super.init(filterConfig);
try {
Container cont = super.dispatcher.getContainer();
ObjectFactory.setObjectFactory(cont.getInstance
(ObjectFactory.class));
//any valid object will do to trigger GuiceModule
initialisation
//the rest of startups can happen there
ObjectFactory.getObjectFactory().buildBean(QuartzService.class,
null);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
