Hi,
according to the spec, i think it is normal. It is written that you can have
these mappings :
- begining with '/' and ending with '/*' is for path mapping (not your
case)
- begining with '*.' is for extension mapping (not your case)
- only '/' indicate defaut servlet of the application (not your case)
- all other strings are used for EXACT matches only (so it is your case
by default)
I'm sorry but i thing you can't mapp what you want.
Why doesn't change you calls wich are :"aaa********" by "********.aaa" so
you can map on '*.aaa'
That's what i do. I use a specific extension for mapping to the right
controler (servlet).
Regards,
Cédric
