public class SOAPMonitorService
extends HttpServlet

This is a SOAP Monitor Service class. During the HTTP server startup, the servlet init method is invoked. This allows the code to open a server socket that will be used to communicate with running applets. When an HTTP GET request is received, the servlet dynamically produces an HTML document to load the SOAP monitor applet and supply the port number being used by the server socket (so the applet will know how to connect back to the server). Each time a socket connection is established, a new thread is created to handle communications from the applet. The publishMethod routine is invoked by the SOAP monitor handler when a SOAP message request or response is detected. The information about the SOAP message is then forwared to all current socket connections for display by the applet.
