You could impmenent this as a jboss service. What is your program going to do? If
it's going to be your basic request/response server (even with long-lived
connections), you may be able to implement it as a servlet. Not an HttpServlet, but
just a custom servlet (i.e., it implements the Servlet interface or extends
javax.servlet.GenericServlet).
Assuming you need a protocol other than HTTP, you can write a custom protocol handler
("connector" in Tomcat lingo) that reads the data, builds a ServletRequest object (not
HttpServletRequest), and calls the server to map it and service it. This is how
tomcat accepts JK2 requests from Apache httpd.
I actually did this for a school project, and implemented several interesting protocol
connectors and servlets, for services like DNS, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, and finger. (I
didn't use tomcat; I wrote my own mini-servlet container, but you may be better off
using something more tried-and-true like tomcat).
I can dig up the source if you're interested.
