Some code to be run on Cocoon startup

[Per Steffensen <st...@designware.dk>]

Hi

Im am making a larger system, containing producer, processor etc, on top of Cocoon. I have some setup code that I just want run on Cocoon startup. Does Cocoon support some way to do that or should I hack some way myself?

Kind Regards

Which version?

To be fair, neither version directly supports a LifeCycle event system.
Cocoon 2 has two methods of handling that scenario:

Have the code run from a static { } block, and use the load-class
initial parameter to load that class (thus causing the static blocks
to run).

Use a Servlet 2.3 compliant Servlet Engine like Tomcat 4, and use the
new Servlet Lifecycle event system that is part of that spec.

I do not know whether Cocoon 1 will function in a Servlet 2.3 Engine.
