It might be useful to have a reference DTD for server.xml included in the documentation for tomcat as delivered by apache. But not actually reference it in the "DOCTYPE" declaration in server.xml
This would give users a single place to reference for constructing a valid server.xml file while not constraining an admin from extending the system. -----Original Message----- From: Tim Funk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 08, 2003 11:37 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: DTD for server.xml?? It would be almost impossible to write a DTD for server.xml since an admin may inject custom classes (Listeners/Loggers). To have a dtd, we would need to know every property which can be set for every class (which may be made known in server.xml) since tomcat uses reflection from Diegester. -Tim Turner, John wrote: > Hello - > > I notice that the top of web.xml has: > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> > <!DOCTYPE web-app > PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" > "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd"> > > yet the top of server.xml has nothing. > > I'm very new to XML, so forgive me if this is a lame or FA question, but is > there a DTD for server.xml?
