There is no direct link from web.xml since WebSockets were designed to be implementable independently from a J2EE container.

The ServerEndpointConfig will have the modifyHandshake() method called where you have access to elements of the request and response. You need to copy any data you need at this point. > If i want to load in a file that is in the current webapps WEB-INF dir how > do i do that?
