WAR files and web.xml
I have a question concerning the generation of a war file and my
web.xml file. I want to create a WAR file for my web application
using Ant, and place my web.xml file into the WAR file. The problem I
have is that once the web.xml file is placed into the web.xml file,
users/admins will not be able to make changes to the configuration
parameters in the web.xml file.
For instance, I have a servlet that I load at tomcatstartup and it
reads configuration information from the web.xml. Now if the web.xml
file has to be placed into the WAR file, a customer will not be able
to customize the values contained in the web.xml file.
So, am I missing something, or is this how everything is supposed to work?
Thank you.

For the same needs,
I use the Context.xml outside the war.
use the tags <Parameter .../> to pass your admin parameters.
