Hi,
I'm using Seam 2.0.1GA and JBoss AS 4.2.2GA.
I want to start a thread at startup of Jboss. To do this I've created a HttpServlet that starts the thread at init().
I added the following lines to my web.xml:
'
<servlet>
<servlet-name>MyServletName</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
package.name.ClassName
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1000</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
'
This starts the servlet correctly at startup. The problem is that the thread blocks the rest of the application. The thread is listening for incoming TCP packets on a specified port. (It hangs at mySocket.accept())
How can I make sure that the rest application keeps running?
