Can you? Yes.
The method depends on your version of tomcat. Older tomcat (sorry, I
don't remember what version) versions used to require you to add
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> to a servlet definition and have
the servlet do this work for you. Newer tomcats (at least version 5.0
and 5.5, don't know about 4.1.x) allow you to implement a
ServletContextListener for better management including being able to
close down the thread when the context is stopped.

Hello!
I would like, just after tomcat starts, to create a new thread. Where
can I put the code that starts it? I do not want to wait with starting
the thread until some servlet is needed.
Best regards,
Artur
