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. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: tomcat-user-unsubscribe@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: tomcat-user-help@jakarta.apache.org
