[OS-webwork] Newbie-Right place for one-time ops

[Ottone Maurizio Grasso]

I'm almost sure I'm posing a typical webwork newbie question, but that's what I am: my esposition too the framework adds up to a frantic w-e spent perusing examples and docs.
To the question then: where's the right way to write the operations you usually write into the init method of a Servlet (i.e: db connections) and want to be performed before any action belonging to your application?
To sum things up: it has to be executed once and when the first action is invoked it's already been executed.

Do you modify the ServletDispatcher? (I guess not :-))
Do you write a one-time action which gets auto-invoked by the container at startup and then insert into the Application map the data needed inside the other actions ? (still don't know if it works ...)

thanks in advance
otto
