In Struts 1.1, you can define and register a PlugIn that is notified when
the Struts controller servlet is started and stopped. The init() method
can do whatever setup things you need.
In Struts 1.0, you can accomplish the same thing by subclassing
org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet and overriding the init() method --
something like this:
public void init() throws ServletException {
super.init();
... do my own setup ...
}
and using this class as the "action" servlet in web.xml.
