Chapter SRV.10. Mapping Requests to ServletsPrevious versions of this specification have allowed servlet containers a great deal of flexibility in mapping client requests to servlets by merely suggesting a set of mapping techniques. This specification now requires a set of mapping techniques to be used for web applications which are deployed via the web application deployment mechanism. Just as it is highly recommended that servlet containers use the deployment representations as their runtime representation, it is highly recommended that they use these path mapping rules in their servers for all purposes and not just as part of deploying a web application. |
