* Lars Trieloff (JIRA):
> The cocoon-deployer-plugin has currently no support for XPatch,
> which makes it difficult to modify the web.xml when developing
> cocoon blocks. For example the cocoon-xmldb-impl block should
> add, when deployed, a servlet for xindice and a servlet mapping
> for the xindice servlet. This was possible in 2.1 using the
> XConfToolTask, but is no longer possible with the current state
> of the deployer-plugin.

> My patch adds support for patching the web.xml file using *.xweb
> files in the /conf directory of a block by filtering the block's
> jar file during deployment for conf/*.xweb files, caching the
> patch document temporarily and applying them (using code from
> the orgiginal XConfToolTask in 2.1) to the web.xml. The patch
> has currently no support for other files than conf/*.xweb files
> and does not support any property expansion.
Hey, that sounds good. Has anyone been able to review this
