getPathInfo()

[Dalia, Keith A - TOS-DITT1]

I want to use the request.getPathInfo() but am not sure how it works with
tomcat's config.  When you alias you servlet you specify a path

ie:
<servlet>
        <servlet-name>TWAUTHID</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>twauthid</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>TWAUTHID</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/twauthid</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

so in the twauthid servlet getPathInfo() returns null.

Do I have to do something different with the url-pattern if I want to use
getPathInfor()?


TIA, Keith
