We have a servlet that loads static data into the application object through our entity beans; everything is running in jboss /w embedded tomcat. Because Embedded Tomcat starts before the EJB container the servlet can't get to the data. I moved embedded tomcat to the end of the load sequence (jboss.jcml) and it worked but .ear's can't be deployed. Other than a timer, is their a signal/listener that i can register with to wait for JBoss to deploy the beans so I can then let the servlet go do it's thing? Should I just do a shell script to force the initialization of the servlet immediately following jboss loading. This doesn't really seem to warrant an mbean.
Has anyone tackled something like this yet?
TIA,
