Initializing struts

I need to initialize my web application when struts (Tomcat) starts up.
Is there an means for calling an init method on a class only when
struts/app server starts up?

In your web.xml, you can use the load-on-startup tag.  Eg:

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>init</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.blah.InitServlet</servlet-class>
    <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

This will call the init method on your servlet when tomcat starts up.
