RE: Can someone direct me to the documentation.
Could a link be added to the docs stating something like: Web.xml format specified at LINK? I think this type of this would be VERY helpful for deflecting clueful newbies. Only a clue hammer will help the clueless :) --Angus -Original Message- From: Derek Clarkson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 8:54 PM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: Can someone direct me to the documentation.

Hi all, I've found over time that the Apache and associated projects web site is either extremely good, or extremely bad when it comes to finding certain pieces of documentation. The lastest one that's been driving me nuts is wanting to find a reference to the tags that can be set inside the servlet namespace in a web.xml file.

I seached the Apache sites, the web, everything I could find and all I got was some references in various news groups. It was enough to tell me what I needed to know, but I would still like to know where the offical reference is for this part of the web.xml file. Can anyone point me to a URL ?

Howdy, Could a link be added to the docs stating something like: Web.xml format specified at LINK? I think this type of this would be VERY helpful for deflecting clueful newbies. Only a clue hammer will help the clueless :) Where do you suggest we add this link to the servlet specification?

RE: Can someone direct me to the documentation.
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/index.html In the getting started topic. I do notice a blurb about web.xml in the application developers topic stating Covers basic organization of your web application source tree, the structure of a web application archive, and an introduction to the web application deployment descriptor (/WEB-INF/web.xml). But I missed it when I first sent my message. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/introduction.html This could just have a more explicit messages saying how web.xml is define in the servlet 2.3 spec. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/source.html Make the mention of web.xml a hotlink? http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/processes.html A bit more test around the mention of a basic web.xml. I don't think many people new to these config files know that you can just type in the dtd link into a web browser and get the dtd. It is a VERY nifty way to get the spec for an xml file though. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/servletapi/index.html Could this page have this type of link? --Angus -Original Message- From: Shapira, Yoav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 01, 2004 9:53 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: Can someone direct me to the documentation.

RE: Can someone direct me to the documentation.
Hi, http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/index.html In the getting started topic. I do notice a blurb about web.xml in the application developers topic stating Covers basic organization of your web application source tree, the structure of a web application archive, and an introduction to the web application deployment descriptor (/WEB-INF/web.xml). But I missed it when I first sent my message. OK, so I'll ignore this one since it's there. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/introduction.htm l This could just have a more explicit messages saying how web.xml is define in the servlet 2.3 spec. It doesn't get much clearer than the second bullet point under Links here: you will need this document to understand the web application directory structure and deployment file (Chapter 9), methods of mapping request URIs to servlets (Chapter 11), container managed security (Chapter 12), and the syntax of the web.xml Web Application Deployment Descriptor (Chapter 13). http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/source.html Make the mention of web.xml a hotlink? Added a link to the servlet specification. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/appdev/processes.html A bit more test around the mention of a basic web.xml. I don't think many people new to these config files know that you can just type in the dtd link into a web browser and get the dtd. It is a VERY nifty way to get the spec for an xml file though. Added link to Servlet Specification there as well. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/servletapi/index.html Could this page have this type of link? Yes, if you ask the Servlet Specification committee (JSR 154 Expert Group). Note that my changes were applied to the latest version of the above files in CVS (i.e. the tomcat 5 files) and will not be visible on jakarta.apache.org until the next tomcat release.
