Hi, I'm sort of new to SOAP, and had a couple questions that hopefully someone can help me answer. I have a small application that I would like to be created when my webserver (right now Apache Tomcat) starts up. This small application will in turn create a few instances of other objects that will run in their own threads and do their own things. The reason I want this to happen within the same JVM as the webserver is that I do not want to have to use RMI or some other abtraction to talk to my application using SOAP (i.e. the SOAP request goes to a servlet that uses RMI to communicate with the app). Now, here are my questions:
1) Assuming that I can create the master object, which in turn creates other objects, can I then make SOAP RPC calls into methods on these other objects (which is what I want to do)? 2) How would I create this master object when my webserver loads up so that these subobjects are accesible through apache SOAP? The subobjects have to be created by the master object, they cannot be created independently. Thanks for your help! I appreciate it!
