It also says: "An implementation of a particular version of the specification MUST scan for all annotations supported in that configuration, unless metadata-complete is specified." So I ask "which configuration?" - interpreting it to mean that Servlet 3.0 supports the WebServlet annotation etc, and 2.5 does not, because that annotation is not present in 2.5. p > 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.
