Tomcat 4 does this in exactly the same way that Tomcat 3.2 did it -- the
"invoker" function is performed by a servlet that you select with whatever
mapping you want. To make "/somethingelse/{servlet-name}" work instead of
"/servlet/{servlet-name}", you would change the entry in "conf/web.xml"
to this:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/somethingelse/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
Alternatively, you could just *add* this new entry (instead of replacing
the old one) if you wanted it to work either way.
