Enabling "CrossContext" in web applications
Hi,
I need to enable the Tomcat "CrossContext" parameter for my web
applications, so that their contexts are visible to each other, but I am
not clear on how to do this properly in Geronimo 1.2-beta.
I saw somewhere in a dev mailing list that the following snippet should be
added to the geronimo-web.xml plan:
---
<container-config container="Tomcat">
<config-param name="CrossContext">true</config-param>
</container-config>
---
However, on the IBM website, I also see that there is a geronimo-tomcat.xml
descriptor that I could put in my web application and that allows for the
configurability of this CrossContext parameter (based on WASCE 1.1.0.1).
Currently, I do not have any geronimo-tomcat.xml descriptors in my web
applications. Does anybody know what the best way to do this is?
Thanks,
Aman

Thanks, this works!
I had to change the namespace of the web-app element in my geronimo-web.xml
to the Tomcat namespace that you specified, and add the <cross-context/>
element. This is an interesting technique to make the gernimo-web.xml more
specific to the container.

I haven't played with this in a while, but I think you just need to
add <cross-context/> to your deployment plan (geronimo-web.xml),
according to the schema
http://geronimo.apache.org/schemas-1.1/geronimo-tomcat-1.1.xsd.
For example, something like this should work:
<web-app xmlns="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/j2ee/web/tomcat-1.1">
<context-root>/mywebapp</context-root>
<cross-context/>
</web-app>
Best wishes,
Paul
