I see. I looked through the Servlet Spec 2.3 and no restrictions are found to have multiple context paths mapped to one web application. But how such capability is utilized in a servlet container? I do not find information on how to map multiple context paths to one web application. Is this container vendor specific thing?
Another thought that is surprising me is that a web application could not assume its context paths are *constants* in the application life cycle. Is this assumption valid in general? (Of course one should not change context paths very often even if they could be changed.) Jing ----- Original Message ----- From: "Craig R.
