Or, you could put your bean(s) in a spring xml file and load a spring
ClassPathXmlApplicationContext :)

Subject: Re: Is there a way to automatically instantiate a bean at startup?
There IS a way to instantiate a bean at start up. This is how I connect to
my database and load up my properties file. I use the NETBEANS IDE to do
this, but all it does is to place an attribute into the XML file for the
bean. If you google RUNATSTARTUP attribute you should be able to see more
as to how this is done.
I am away from the code that does this but if you need more help I can send
you a copy of that.
