For what it's worth, here's an example:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context>
<Resources>
<PreResources
className="org.apache.catalina.webresources.FileResourceSet"
base="/app/files/special.txt" webAppMount="/static/special. txt" />
<PostResources
className="org.apache.catalina.webresources.DirResourceSet"
base="/app/files/static" webAppMount="/static" />
</Resources>
</Context>
Here's how I understand this...
The first tag exposes a single resource located locally at
"/app/files/special.txt" on the application relative path of
"/static/special.txt". The second tag exposes a directory located locally at
"/app/files/static" on the application relative path of "/static".
Ex:
http://<server>/<context>/static/special.txt -> would return the file
"/app/files/special.txt".
http://<server>/<context>/static/<some-file> -> would return <some-file>
from "/app/files/static/".
The first tag is a PreResource so it would be selected before a file of the
same name in "/app/files/static". It would also get selected before a resource
of the same name exposed by the application or a JAR file. The second tag is a
PostResource so it would only be checked if nothing else (i.e. PreResources,
the app or JAR files) provided the resource.
