Re: [jbossws-users] Where to put initialization code of a Web Service?

Thanks for the help, Richard.
However, this still does not help me, and I explain why.

The initialization method of my web service depends on a couple of 
parameters that are defined in the web service's web.xml (using 
<context-param>).

So my initialization method needs to have access to the ServletContext.
But it seems that at the @PostConstruct moment the ServletContext is not 
ready yet to be consulted, as I get a error when I try to access it with:
servletContext=(ServletContext)context.getMessageContext().get(MessageContext.SERVLET_CONTEXT);


How can I have initialization code that is able to receive parameters 
that are defined in web.xml (or defined by some other means)?

Thanks in advance.
