Hi Brian,
the "xxx.vm" is part of a parameter that is provided to the turbine
framework. It is actually an error to try to map "*.vm" to Turbine.
You should do prefix mapping:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>myservlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.turbine.Turbine</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>properties</param-name>
<param-value>WEB-INF/conf/turbine.properties</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>myservlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/app/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Then access Turbine at
http://your-application-server-uri/app
The URI parts following the "/app" are "/key/value" pairs and an URI
that looks like this:
..../app/foo/bar/template/Foo.vm
is equal from a Turbine point of view to
..../app/template/Foo.vm/foo/bar
So you can only rely on /app/ being mapped to Turbine, not the .../Foo.vm part.
I fact, I think I will add code to Turbine at some point, that makes
_sure_ that when multiple parameters are supplied, the template/Foo.vm
part is never the last one. ;-) Or maybe not.
Regards
Henning
