Are you deploying two copies of Axis as separate Web applications? If so, each will get its own classloader, so if the class that contains your static files is loaded by the Web app's class loader, you'll have two copies of the static variable.
One way around this is deploy the relevant class in the shared lib directory of your Web container. For example, using Tomcat, put your JAR file in shared/lib instead of webapps/axis/WEB-INF/lib.

The 1st service implements the interface1 and the 2nd one implements the interface2. I implemented a class (called App) which implements both interfaces with a static singleton class. The idea is that both services would share the same variable (in my case a HashMap with properties that could change during the execution of the program). I created then two different wsdd and deployed both services. Everything works fine except because of it seems that each service runs in a different process and the singleton HashMap is not shared, so the information service1 introduces on the HashMap is not available in the HashMap of service2. How is it possible to have 2 different services and to share one variable between both services?
