Subject: webapp necessary?
Hello all,
I'm trying to migrate a (rather large) legacy application to Tomcat 3.3 +
Apache.
Previously (with various web servers), I only needed to provide the
classpath
and servlet directory repository.
With Tomcat it seems that I MUST use a webapp structure. Is this true?
Yes. The URL http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/index.html is
a good starting point.
Is there any way to tell Tomcat where my servlets are without providing a
web.xml file in a WEB-INF directory off the webapps directory?
You could do without a web.xml for a simple web application. But if you
wish to provide init parameters, register servlets, wish to map servlets to
URI requests, etc. then it would be a good idea to have a web.xml file for
each web application you create.
The above URL should lead you in the right direction.
Thanks,
Darrell
I hope this helps.
Thanks.
RS
