Hi,
I think the best example of implementing what you mentioned
is how Struts's ActionServlet refers to its config file struts-config.xml
in the web.xml, by using following code:
<init-param>
<param-name>config</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml</param-value>
</init-param>
Hope this helps,
Shengmeng Liu
