Class DirectoryNameWebXmlLocator

java.lang.Object

org.jboss.solder.servlet.webxml.DirectoryNameWebXmlLocator

All Implemented Interfaces:

WebXmlLocator, Sortable

public class DirectoryNameWebXmlLocator
extends Object
implements WebXmlLocator

This implementation of WebXmlLocator will try to identify the location of web.xml by searching for a known resource on the classpath and trying to find the WEB-INF directory in its path name. This will typically work if the known resource in located in a JAR file inside the WEB-INF/lib directory.

Compared to URLClassLoaderWebXmlLocator this implementation works fine even for containers like JBoss AS6 and AS7.
