The destroy() method is called by the servlet container, when it removes this
servlet from service or when the application is shut down.  Typically, server
shutdown is the *only* time that a servlet is removed and destroy() is called.

This is done by adding <init-param> entries in the WEB-INF/web.xml file.  See
the Servlet API Specification, version 2.2, for the details -- you can download
it at:

    http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/download.html

There are also a growing number of articles and books covering the servlet 2.2
API that discusses this kind of thing.  I would try looking for "web.xml" in
your favorite search engine, as a starting point.
