I think there's some miscommunication going on here. When i said "How about
we just have a  ServletHost getContextPath() modeled after the Servlet APIs
getContextPath method" i meant it would also work like the  Servlet API
method and return a path not a complete URI as with the getBaseURI proposal.
So for the examples given initially a webapp url like,
http://localhost:8080/helloworld-ws-service-webapp and the war distro
http://localhost:8080/tuscany, the new getContextPath method would return
"/helloworld-ws-service-webapp" and "/tuscany" respectively.
