The fact is there is no equivalent of "loading an application" because
Java is a compiled language, python is an interpreted language.
This does not mean that your problem does not exist of that there is
no solution for it. The easiest way is to create a startup script
appilcations/yourapp/private/yourscrpt.py
then run
python web2py.py -S yourapp -M -R applications/yourapp/private/
yourscript.py
This will run your script once, as it is were in a controller,
bypassing the web server completely.
You can easily create a startup script for web2py that runs it before
starting web2py.
If this does not solve your issues, could you be more specific about
the task you need to perform?
