Perhaps within your <service> deployment descriptor you need this: <parameter name="scope" value="application"/>

I had hoped that it was similar to javax.servlet.Servlet in that init and destroy are only called once. >From my testing, with javax.xml.rpc.server.ServiceLifecycle, init and destroy are >called on each request of the service endpoint. Is this correct? If it is, is there another interface or something I can implement or another mechanism to get something similar to javax.servlet.Servlet (i.e., init only called once, destroy only called once)? I want to create some expensive objects once and stick them in the ServletContext ... I can just use null logic I suppose, but I'd like to use a lifecycle method if one exists/works. Best regards, Mike
