We've recently upgraded our Cocoon 2.1 based web app from Tomcat 4 to Tomcat 6. Our sitemaps were written with a somewhat invalid matchers which worked in Tomcat 4:

For example:

<map:match pattern="/basicthing">
...
</map:match>


Tomcat 6 more adequately adheres to the HTTP URL spec and appends a trailing slash. Of course, the trailing slash breaks the matcher above. The following matcher would work in Tomcat 6 but breaks all of the matchers for Tomcat 4:

<map:match pattern="/basicthing/">
...
</map:match>


To avoid duplication, I've written a matcher to catch this case to avoid duplicating matchers:

<map:match pattern="*/">
<map:redirect-to uri="cocoon:/{1}"/>
</map:match>


While this works for the basic case, it is not recursive, and as soon as a url pattern goes past basic thing (/basicthing/morethings/), I need another matcher to catch this case ("*/*/").

Is there a way to create a recursive matcher in cocoon to catch multiple slashes and end at a trailing slash? I'm thinking something like:

<map:match pattern="**/">
<map:redirect-to uri="cocoon:/{1}"/>
</map:match>

Would that work?

yes
