Web.xml and Url-mapping.

[Henrik Krievs]

Studying for SCWCD, I'm on the partwith url mapping.

It doesn't seem that you can combine extension mappings and path mappings ?

Eg.

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Servlet1</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/MyApp/Myservlet1/*.jsp</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Servlet2</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/MyApp/Myservlet1/*.someotherextension</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

You can't combine extension mappings with path mappings, as you said. However, you could get this same functionality if you just put all of your files with the same extension in a subfolder.

So, instead of

/myGenericFolder/*.jsp

You could use

/myGenericFolder/myJSPs/*

Very good solution!
