Actually I have noticed that with servlet mappings security and pathinfo
stuff seems to behave erratically (either that or I haven't discovered
exactly what the pattern is). Does anyone have a matrix of url-pattern in
the servlet-mapping, url-pattern in a security-constraint, servlet-name, and
what pathInfo() returns and how they all interact? It would be useful.
Thanks...

Subject: PathInfo and servlet-mapping
Ok, I've determined that I don't always lose my pathInfo. It's only when i
try to map my servlet as the default servlet.
How do i do a getPathInfo() on my default servlet? Here is the entry in my
web.xml file. what am i doing wrong?
When I use:
<servlet-name>PrintPathInfo</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
URL: /testing/the/pathInfo
getPathInfo() returns null
when I use:
<servlet-name>PrintPathInfo</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/path</url-pattern>
URL: /path/testing/the/pathInfo
getPathInfo() returns /testing/the/pathInfo
Thanks for your help.
