Relationship betwee doctype of Custom Tlds and web.xml

[Ayan Dutta]

Hi,
when I am writing a custom tag,the tld file corresponding to that tag must have doctype .Now does this doctype has any relationship with the doctype of web.xml ?

For example the doc type of web.xml in Tomcat and in Websphere are different,for that can there be any change required ?

Regards,
Ayan

There should be no difference unless Websphere is not specification-compliant.

The format of the deployment descriptor is determined in the Servlet Specification and should not be container-specific.
