I believe that the servletContext which can meet the bill for you. Have a
servlet initialize on loading the application, you can control that in the
web.xml. Whenever the slsb is initialized, pass the servelet context, and
get your application class with a servletContext.getAttribute("myClass").
You can also get a env reference, and let the slsb get the reference (if its
a simple object you want).

Subject: Stateless Session Beans
I'm hoping that someone can help me with this.
Can you have a stateless session bean that actually has class variables?
Ie I want to have a variable that is loaded once per application, and then
accessed by all the whole application.
I know that SLSB are pooled and created and destroyed at will - but will
they be created with the variable containing a value?
Any thoughts are much appreciated.
Scott
