Hi,
We’ve embedded Tomcat 7.0.26 in our product and we are currently trying to cover Servlet 3.0 CTS with it. We’ve encountered the following problem with one of the tests. Though the version of the web deployment descriptor of the test application is 2.5, there is a servlet annotated with *@WebServlet *annotation and requests to this servlet are responded with 404 Not Found. When I change the version of the web.xml to 3.0 everything works just fine. In Chapter *“1.6.2 Regarding Processing annotations”* in the Servlet 3.0 Specification it is said that: *“The version of the descriptor MUST not affect which annotations you scan for in a web application.”* So my understanding is that the application should be processed for Servlet 3.0 specific annotations regardless of the version of the deployment descriptor. As far as I’m aware, each new Tomcat release successfully covers Servlet 3.0 CTS, so I’m wondering if I’ve missed some configuration on Tomcat side? Any hints or ideas are highly appreciated. Thanks! Maria P.S. The issue is easily reproducible with clean Tomcat 7.0.26 installation and the attached simple test applications. They differ only in the web.xml’s version and only /AnnotTest_30/AnnotServlet is correctly responded, while /AnnotTest_25/AnnotServlet gets 404 response.
