ServletRequest getPathTranslated() seems to ignore virt. directories (contexts)

Hi,
in server.xml I added a context like

<Context path="/vd" docBase="c:/temp" debug="0" reloadable="true" >

then the URL http://localhost:8080/vd returns a listing of c:\temp

Problem is, http://localhost:8080/servlet/SnoopServlet/vd
gets the wrong Path-Info:

Path Trans: ...\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\ROOT\vd

NOT c:\temp!

Bug? 

Thank you
Eckard Buchner
