Yes, it has only informative value. E.g. if you have to deploy your web application to some other web server, not Tomcat, and you have to use a tool to do such deployment, this element says that your application needs a database connection. Thus the tool will offer you to configure one. Configuration of connection itself is always server-specific. Thus it is in context.xml, not web.xml. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
