After doing a little more research, I modified the constructor of my custom inhandler class (that extends org.apache.axis2.handlers.AbstractHandler) and see that it is instantiated only once on startup. I think that the constructor may be a perfect place for me to do my one time setup, prior to processing requests. Does anyone out there do similar setup in the constructor of one of thier AbstractHandler implementations?

Hi, I'm trying to find the proper way to customize the axis2 startup, to instantiate a HSQLDB and insert some records from the .script file. I don't think an inflow handler would be the proper place because I don't want to do this on every request just once when the webapp launches. We are running axis2-1.3. Is there a facility in axis2 to run some one time house cleaning on startup? Thanks Chris
