So I just wanted to get suggestions for how I can workaround not having access 
to the ServletContext during the phase when components tagged with @Startup and 
@Application get created.

Here's my use case:
I've got a component,which needs some one-off, time consuming initialization to 
be run before it can be used. The component is currently a static singleton. 
In order to initialize the component I need to grab a resource using 
ServletContext.getResource(..). This resource is not available on the 
classpath. 

I'm currently using a servlet to do the initialization and making sure it runs 
early by putting <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> in the web.xml

This all works however I would like to move away from using the static 
singleton approach and have the singleton component injected into my other Seam 
components which need it.

The approach I've seen discussed before of just removing the @Startup 
annotation and have the component created lazily won't work here, since I don't 
want the first request being held up by the time consuming initialization that 
the component requires.

Any other ideas?

Cheers
