Specification of Mappings

In the Web application deployment descriptor, the following syntax is used to define mappings.

• A string beginning with a ‘/’ character and ending with a ‘/*’ suffix is used for path mapping.
• A string beginning with a ‘*.’ prefix is used as an extension mapping.
• A string containing only the ’/’ character indicates the "default" servlet of the application. The servlet path is the request URI minus the context path, and the path info is null.
• All other strings are used for exact matches only.
