Hi, Normally this is done use an initialization servlet. You need a separate class inheriting javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet and a entry in your web.xml file to get it executed once at application startup.
Look at load-on-startup here: http://www.caucho.com/resin-3.0/servlet/servlet.xtp#load-on-startup I'm two inches from implementing this in our medical record viewer which uses Compojure and Ring, I have the same issue. I will no have it done before next Tuesday however, I have some higher priority stuff to deliver first. Hope it helps you Mike Meyer <mwm-keyword-googlegroups.620...@mired.org> wrote .. > My simple web app > (http://blog.mired.org/2010/11/x10-controller-in-clojure.html) has > some stuff that needs to happen just once (in this case, opening the > serial port).
