Used for initialization of a service endpoint. After a service
endpoint instance (an instance of a service endpoint class) is
instantiated, the JAX-RPC runtime system invokes the
init
method. The service endpoint class uses the
init
method to initialize its configuration
and setup access to any external resources. The context parameter
in the init
method enables the endpoint instance to
access the endpoint context provided by the underlying JAX-RPC
runtime system.
The init method implementation should typecast the context
parameter to an appropriate Java type. For service endpoints
deployed on a servlet container based JAX-RPC runtime system,
the context
parameter is of the Java type
javax.xml.rpc.server.ServletEndpointContext
. The
ServletEndpointContext
provides an endpoint context
maintained by the underlying servlet container based JAX-RPC
runtime system
