Yeah, its interesting question, maybe for Tomcat developers to come up,
besides its marked as FIXME to add some info about the way mod_webapp
work behind the scene. :))
but:
RELEASE-NOTES-4.0-B7.txt
---------------------
Tomcat 4.0 and Apache:
---------------------
The binary distribution for Tomcat 4.0 includes the most recent stable version
of the WARP connector, which is the Tomcat component that talks to mod_webapp
inside Apache 1.3. The current state of this support is summarized as follows:
* The mod_webapp connector is configured based on the contents of the
web.xml file for your web application. The only required per-webapp
configuration information in your Apache 1.3 httpd.conf file is
something like this:
WebAppDeploy examples warpConnection /examples/
which causes mod_webapp to automatically recognize all of your servlet
mappings, security constraints, and other configuration elements.
* Currently, mod_webapp forwards *all* requests under the specified
context path to Tomcat for processing. When Tomcat 4.0 final is released,
it will automatically configure itself to serve static resources
from Apache *unless* the resource is subject to filtering, or subject
to a security constraint, as defined in web.xml. No extra configuration
in httpd.conf will be required.
