Description

Is there a way to store some user defined parameter name and values at the time of server start-up ? I know that the sessions created by connections from individual clients can store certain attributes and their values. I was thinking, if different sessions could access commonly needed properties in a server wide accessible object such as IoService.

I started my career on z/OS platform and my exposure to transaction management came from CICS product. There, we used to use Common Work Area (CWA - http://bit.ly/KhKS6S) and Transaction Work Area (TWA - http://bit.ly/LvWCIm) which are approximately similar to server-wide and session-wide attributes that I am referring to in this email.

Or, perhaps, this question is wrong because MINA is not (directly) meant to implement server features, such as transactional integrity, etc. ?
