It looks like we need to call both getServletPath and getPathInfo, and
then subtract the servlet-mapping.
Here's what the HttpRequest is willing to tell us:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/do/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
action: ** PATH INFO:
action: /find/Last
action: ** PATH TRANS:
action: D:\public\tomcat\webapps\artimus\find\Last
action: ** QUERY STRING:
action: null
action: ** REQUEST URI:
action: /artimus/do/find/Last
action: ** SERVLET PATH:
action: /do
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>action</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.do</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
action: ** PATH INFO:
action: null
action: ** PATH TRANS:
action: null
action: ** QUERY STRING:
action: null
action: ** REQUEST URI:
action: /artimus/find/Last.do
action: ** SERVLET PATH:
action: /find/Last.do
If you do this
servletPath + pathInfo
you get
/do/find/Last
and
/find/Last.do
respectively.
So then we just need to mask the prefix (/do/*) or suffix (*.do) to get
/find/Last
in either case.
I believe this will make
/do/module1/action
and
/module1/action.do
equivalent under 1.1 as it is under 1.0.
If this sounds reasonable, I'll give it a try.
In 1.0, there was also a place in html:form that assumed extension
mapping and so prevented using extensions under prefix mapping. If the
rest works out, I'd check on that too.
