Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	destroy(ServiceContext context) destroy() is called when Axis2 decides that it is finished with a particular instance of the back-end service class.
void	init(ServiceContext context) init() is called when a new instance of the implementing class has been created.

Method Detail

init

void init(ServiceContext context)
          throws AxisFault

init() is called when a new instance of the implementing class has been created. This occurs in sync with session/ServiceContext creation. This method gives classes a chance to do any setup work (grab resources, establish connections, etc) before they are invoked by a service request.

Parameters:

context - the active ServiceContext

Throws:

AxisFault - if something goes wrong. Throwing a fault here will result in either failed deployment (for application-scoped services) or failed requests.

destroy

void destroy(ServiceContext context)

destroy() is called when Axis2 decides that it is finished with a particular instance of the back-end service class. It allows classes to clean up resources.

Parameters:

context - the active ServiceContext
