Just to clarify, George wasn't talking about a "context listener thread". I suppose there *technically* is such a thing, but what he was referring to is spawning a thread *from* a context listener. Subtle semantic difference, but it completely changes the meaning :)

Can you point me to some documentation about context listener threads? I have no idea what you're talking about.

Thanks.

risks. But, if you have something like a background process that isn't tied to a request, with the caveat the other poster made about daemon

A good way of starting threads not tied to a request is to have a context
listener class start the threads and handle any required shutdown.
