Interesting Tim. But a little confusing for me.

Never used filters, but for what you said and I googled: I would have to
build a filter and map it to "/images/*", right?

Something like:
    <filter>
        <filter-name>Resource filter</filter-name>
        <filter-class>com.mycompany.resourcefilter</filter-class>
    </filter>
    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>Resource filter mapped</filter-name>
        <servlet-name>/images/*</servlet-name>
    </filter-mapping>

If I understand correctly, every request made to this URL path will be
answerd with what I declare in the filter.

Am I in the correct way?

 Your "easiest" workaround is to use a filter.

So
1) have the default servlet map to /* (which is the default)
2) keep the invoker declared
3) And make your filter do this ...

doFilter(..) {
  if (request.getServletPath().matches(regex-here)) {
    =
servletContext.getNamedDispatcher("invoker").forward(request,response);
    return;
  }
  chain.doFilter(...)
}

Where regex-here is something which limits the mayhem you are imposing =
on
yourself ..
like this: "/servlet/com\.yourcompany\..+"

Dear all,

                I'm faceing the following problem in tomcat (probably =
just
configuration).



                I have a WEBAPP which uses the "invoker" servlet (i know =
how
bad it is, but for now it gets the job done).



                The static content is under "/images/" path.



                So a tipical URL was
like"http://host:8080/webapp/servlet/home"
<http://host:8080/webapp/servlet/home>.



                To avoid the "servlet" part of the URL I layed hands in
"web.xml".



                This is the result:

                               <web-app>

                               <servlet-mapping>


<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>

                                               =
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>

                               </servlet-mapping>

                               <servlet-mapping>


<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>


<url-pattern>/images/*</url-pattern>

                               </servlet-mapping>

                               </web-app>



                The problem is that static content is not shown under
"images", it is shown under "images/images".



                For example:

                               http://host:8080/webapp/images/help.png
ERROR

 http://host:8080/webapp/images/images/help.png                    OK



                In order to keep things as tidy as possible I would like
static content to be served under "images".



                Using ROOT is not an option because this tomcat is =
shared
among several WEBAPPS.



                Is there anything wrong with my configuration or am I
missing something?
