As you say, Application scope means that a single instance of the service
class will be created to handle requests. However, this single instance
*can* handle multiple requests. Multiple threads can execute code in the
service simultaneously, unless your code does synchronization to prevent it.
No, it means that SOAP server calls the service methods of the single
instance as many times as it needs to handle the number of client requests.
Your service code must be thread safe.
