mark -
the concept of a "web-application" is now present
in jsdk2.1 and is in fact expanded upon in the
servlet 2.2 specification.
within the distributed jsdk (and jswdk), webpages is
an example of just such a structure as is the examples
directory. each of these directories serve as document
roots/bases for inbound requests. the examples webApp
services inbound requests prefaced with an "/examples"
path where as the webpages webApp services any request
not handled by another webApp (it is the default
document base).
within a single webApp you can place your servlets
and access them accordingly. the servlets should
reside in the WEB-INF/servlets directory found in
any compliant webApp construct/directory.
eg:
jsdk2.1/foo/WEB-INF/servlets/Bar.class
can be invoked via the uri
http://localhost:8080/foo/servlet/Bar
hope this helps,
