You could try using the EJB Timer Service, it starts business methods within the correct context. In the start() method of my service: | public void start() throws Exception { | System.out.println("start"); | Thread thread = new Thread(this); | thread.start(); | } | I had considered using a Timer for it but would that not be much more unnefficient using a Service for something that doesn't quite need it?
