We are using the hivemind filter in our application. One of the HiveMind services is used for interaction with the database. This service is used during serialization and deserialization of database persistent objects. We are using Tomcat which will serialize and deserialize sessions during a normal restart. What we have discovered is that HiveMind is not available because the filter has been shutdown by the time that Tomcat serializes the session. We still don't know, but we suspect, that HiveMind won't be available by the time that Tomcat deserializes the sessions. Does anybody have any suggestions? Our only thought was to use a different filter that is not responsible for building the registry, but is responsible for thread clean up stuff. This suffers from application reload issues, which are currently handled by the filter. Help!!!
