If you create that as a servlet, you can set the startup to 1 which will call it each 
time the webserver starts.

Is that what you are looking for?

<servlet>
                <servlet-name>servletname</servlet-name>
                        <servlet-class>com.skp.someclass</servlet-class>

                        <init-param>
                                <param-name>hello</param-name>
                                <param-value>world</param-value>
                        </init-param>

                        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

When the server starts it sees this class as a startup class and immediately executes 
its init.

Subject: Starting a Clean-up program


I have a static method that starts a thread with a class that does some
clean-up tasks.

  public static void init(){
    Thread t = new Thread( new ClearUserHashMapClient() );
    t.start();
  }//init

How can I configure my webapp to call this init() method when I deploy my
war file on Tomcat.


Thanks,

Chandra.
