You need to user the getRequestDispatcher("/theothercontext") method. This will give you a reference to a RequestDispatcher class of the context defined in the instance of Tomcat called "theothercontext".
HTH -----Original Message----- From: Zohar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 3:55 AM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: using crossContext Hi list, I need to forward requests from a servlet running in one context to a different one running in a different context. I understand I need to add "crossContext" to the context descriptor's attributes (should I add it to the forwarding context, to the context that I forward it to, or both?). My question is how to do the actual forwarding. When both servlets share the same context I obtain the RequestDispatcher from the ServletContext and invoke its forward method, but when using cross-context I cannot seem to be able to obtain the RequestDispatcher with getRequestDispatcher(the path has to start with "/"). Can anyone help me with this? Thanks, Zohar. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
