The javax.management.Timer class was rather more complex than I liked
for the simple stuff I needed, but while digging into it, I discovered
the java.util.Timer class, which works great and is easy to implement,
so thanks for putting me on the Timer track!

Thanks for the suggestion. One question about this technique: can
I run the directory check loop directly in the contextInitialized
event of the Listener, or is it mandatory to create a new thread?
You can't make an infinite (almost) loop during processing an event.
Using threads is discouraged ;-)
I'd suggest you to use javax.management.timer.Timer class instead.
You will not start another thread yourself, you will be notified at
specified intervals to check the directory, etc. Another option is to
use quartz to schedule directory checking events.
That certainly sounds like a cleaner solution than a sleep loop.
