Sure it is. I am not sure if its possible in Servlet 2.1/2.2 to "path map"
to a specific controller servlet, but I think it is. I use extension mapping
myself. But basically you would do something in your web.xml file like:

I dont think freeware is the right term, if I read the website correctly.
What you get there is a 90 day evaluation for non-commercial purposes. After
that you may request a commercial license, but it does not say for how much.
I'm real happy with IBM's freeware product "JAX":

Meaning if load-on-startup is 1, that is the first servlet to load, 2 second
to load.

where Controller receives a request, handles it using model and displays it

Hello Michael,
Check the docs for the orion-ejb-jar.xml.
In the entry for entity beans (entity-deployment ...)
you can specify the datasource and table to be used using the
parameters data-source and table.
You can find the file in $(APP-DEPLOYMENT-DIR)/$(APP-NAME)/ejb

hi everybody,
I need to evaluate orionserver but i don't find any user
guide on the site and the documentation is quiet not enough.
For example, i want to know how to define servlet context,
EJB2.0 (how to define EQL, where are the generated stub...)
Has someone a user guide ?
Thanks in advance

Again, my reply to Orion is that they need to get up to speed quickly. They have a
first class product, but because of their pricing structure, their completion is
present on two fronts.
1. Create a notch in markets where much higher priced products like WebSphere and
WebLogic are king.
2.

In either CMP or BMP entitys you can modify deployment settings at any time
with CMP you can even modify the field mapping scheme

you may specify the datasources PRIOR

it's a circular pattern...

Orion, with it's many configuration files, appears very complex to

I don't think entity bean can effectively solve your problem since calling entity bean

Why not use session variables? Session variable is intended for temporary storage,
