Likely, not. Tomcat is a servlet container, which means much of its functionality is dictated by the Servlet Spec (a fantastic read, by the way, if you're new to this arena). web.xml is the Spec-mandated, portable webapp deployment descriptor. : Also i have a doubt that when we are using Struts Framework : the Deployment Descriptor is STRUTS-CONFIG.XML How does Tomcat know that or : realize that we are using Struts framework and uses the appropriate Deployment : descriptor. Tomcat doesn't "realize" you're using Struts; it's that the main Struts entry point is a servlet, which is a component that Tomcat recognizes. Review the Struts docs for details. : If we are able to read our own XML and make Tomcat work : accordingly it will be more flexible.
