I have a web application which contains an applet which communicates with a servlet, and I am having trouble figuring out how to deploy it. My servlet shares some utility classes with my applet. As per the Servlet API, the servlet should be deployed in the following location:
<context>/WEB-INF/classes/servlet and the utility package: <context>/WEB-INF/classes/util But, although the spec mentions "Client side Java applets" (SRV.9.3), it is completely vague about where to put them. I can only assume they mean that the applets should reside somewhere like: <context>/MyApplet.html <context>/classes/*.class Which creates a problem for the applet to access the utility classes, which are in a non-public folder. I don't want to have to create copies of these classes, so I want them to be accessible by both the servlet and applet. I suppose there might be some way to create a mapping to WEB-INF/classes, but this would seem to violate the spirit of the API. On the other hand, I don't think I should put the applet under WEB-INF/classes for the same reason. The only other way I can think is to put them in WEB-INF/lib, but I don't know how to give the applet access. Can anyone tell me the proper way to do this? Is this something which has been overlooked in the spec? -David [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS: Please cc: the above email.
