If a tag needs to build an object structure based on an initialization file, what's the best way to do it?
The BodyTag interface does not seem to have any sort of initialization that's done onload, like Servlets and Filters. What's the reason for this? Are they not meant to be used this way? The alternatives I'm facing are: 1. Write some sort of separate initialization procedure to read in the initialization file on web server start up. Then send the created object structure that reflects the initialization file as a parameter to the tag. 2. Use another approach, since the tags architecture does not seem to be created for config initialization. For example trying to use a filter for the task instead.
