it's easy. Start a Timer inside the servlet init method, set the servlet to load on web application startup, and away you go.
Yes i can start a timer inside the servlet init Method but how to set the servlet sothat it will startup automatically in my web application. Do i use listener in web.xml or any other way are there so that my servlet will automatically load on web application
check the servlet specification. There's a simple flag you can set on a servlet declaration in the web.xml that causes the container to load the servlet during application startup.
