Kohsuke,
Thanks for the reply.
I was trying to draw the analogy from Spring MVC, in that scenario a IoC
Container heirarchy is created with the root
being the bean factory (ApplicationContext) initialized by the Spring
Context Loader Listener. Then, the dispatcher
servlet (in this case WSSpringServlet) would create its own
ApplicationContext and tag itself as child of the "root"
context created by the ContextLoaderListener. Now, it is debatable the
benefits of creating an IoC Hierarchy!
About the other question, yes wac is the WebApplicationContext, which is the
IoC container, so it is like a Chicken
and egg thing, I cannot inject it into the SEI. I need to access the IoC so
that I can retrieve the beans needed to initialize
the SEI properly. Currently the way to get the "wac" (that I know of) is
using the ServletContext. But, in JAX-WS 2.0
I cannot seem to figure out how to get the ServletContext in a @PostContruct
annotated Method. I can get the
servletcontext by @Resource injection trick but it only works for @WebMethod
methods. I would like to get a
reference to the IoC only once at SEI *initialization* phase (preferably in
@PostContstruct) but I don't know how to do
this in JAX-WS 2.0? I have seen some posts where the suggestion was to use
the JAX-RPC Lifecycle methods for SEI,
but I don;t know whether it is OK to use that if I am migrating to JAX-WS
2.0.
Thanks
Mohan
