Velocity + Servlet

[Li Xiaoli-a17351 <a1...@motorola.com>]

Hi

I have a question about Velocity+Servlet. 
In the Servlet example, we must use this URL in browser
http://localhost:8080/velexample/servlet/SampleServlet
why can not use this one
http://localhost:8080/velexample/SampleServlet
what does servlet here mean?

Thanks 
Charley

it indicates that you want the container to run a servlet class
SampleServlet rather than look for a resource 'SampleServlet' in the
webapp root.

You can configure your container to map it like above if you want to...
