Neither. It should return the part of the URI path used to identify
the servlet. So if you have a mapping of the URI path
/catalog=catalogServlet
a request like /catalog/foo/bar should give the following strings
to the servlet:
getServletPath -> /catalog
getPathInfo -> /foo/bar
There's been a lot of discussions about what to return for servlets
mapped to file name extensions on the "expert" list, but the winning
proposal is this: if you have a mapping
.thtml=templateServlet
a request like /foo/bar.thtml should give the following strings
getServletPath -> /foo/bar/thtml
getPathInfo -> null
All of this will most likely be clarified in the next revision of
the spec.
