Service in JBoss

I want to write an application which is supposed to run as a service and it needs to do periodic tasks [poll some object and collect statistics]. I have following questions:

1. Can I write such an application as service in JBoss.
2. If yes, what happens to lifecycle management am I allowed to create threads? Where can I find more information?

I appreciate any help.

Thanks Scott.

Ok, so I started reading about JBoss microkernal and realize that I need to write a ServiceMBean. Now the AS document mentions org.jboss.naming.NonSerializableFactory for binding the beans. I could not find the class in any jar file. I searched, albeit, I don't know how good is microsoft search when it comes to looking for a string in jar file and the jar files listed on jarhoo.com for the class could not be found. I am using jboss4.0.3SP1.

1. Has the class org.jboss.naming.NonSerializableFactory been replaced? After extensive searching I see some JIRA entries mentioning that the class has been renamed to "org.jboss.util.naming.NonSerializableFactory". If that's so the documentation needs to be updated.

2. What other alternative do I have to bind some object in my service into JNDI. Do I specifically have to use NonSerializableFactory?

Need help to understand how to write service using EJB 3.0. Have posted the code in the EJB 3.0 forum:

Would appreciate any help.
