sun-web.xml file in Tomcat
Hi,
I need to make my applications function in both Tomcat and Glassfish.
In Tomcat the context root is simply the path in the context declaration
in server.xml. In Glassfish, the default is the application name. In
order to get Glassfish to assign the correct context root I have
included a file called sun-web.xml in WEB-INF along with the standard
web.xml. My question is: will this file which Tomcat doesn't know
anything about cause any problems with Tomcat or will Tomcat simply
ignore it?
Thanks,
Rob

You should not have any <Context> declarations in server.xml; that
capability is there only for compatibility with older levels. If you
put the <Context> element where it belongs (META-INF/context.xml), then
Tomcat also uses the name of the app as the path (the path attribute is
not allowed in this case). Take a look at the doc:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html

Tomcat should ignore this file. I'm guessing that the Glassfish and
Tomcat devs both know about each others' app-server-specific config
files, and try not to step on each others' toes.
