Specifying context details in web.xml
Hi Friends,
I need to ask you guys that is it possible that I can move the context details from my server.xml to web.xml.Like when i make a "war",i want that i should specify the database url,driver,username,password etc. details .Presently i have 2 contexts(one for alpha databse other for the live one)in the server.xml file in the server.But i need these details in my web.xml.Can you tell me if I can do so....any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

You can do this, but not necessarily using web.xml.
Search the Tomcat docs for "context.xml." The short version is that you
store this in you WAR file. It contains settings for that context.
context.xml is essentially a <Context/> element inside its own file.
