ServiceLifecycle

   
Package javax.xml.rpc.server

JAX-RPC 1.0; JWSDP 1.0, J2EE 1.4

This package contains two interfaces that define the server-side API for JAX-RPC. These interfaces allow a JAX-RPC service implementation to detect the beginning and end of its life cycle in order to perform appropriate initialization and cleanup as well as to gain access to its execution environment.

Both interfaces are relevant only to a service that is hosted within a web container. Services implemented as stateless session beans have access to similar facilities via the life cycle methods of the bean itself and the SessionContext object passed as an argument to its setSessionContext( ) method.

The server-side programming model for JAX-RPC is, in part, dependent on the container in which the service is hosted. For example, a service implemented as a stateless session bean can assume that methods invoked on a given instance are executed serialized with respect to each other, and therefore need not be concerned about threading issues. By contrast, a servlet-hosted service must assume that any of its methods may be called concurrently in separate threads and must, therefore, be thread-safe, unless it implements the javax.servlet.SingleThreadModel interface. Note, however, that while the J2EE specification requires that the container honor this interface, the JAX-RPC specification does not. Therefore, services written for web containers that implement only the JAX-RPC specification (such as the one provided by JWSDP 1.0) must be thread-safe.
