Hi,
Thanks for the quick answer! Actually, we've been doing what you said
all along (however we were doing it before with Servlets and Listeners
described in web.xml and just now tried to run our code with
annotations) but it still doesn't work. We're using JRuby, here's some code:
tomcat = Tomcat.new
tomcat.setPort(8081)
base = java.io.File.new('some-dir')
root_ctx = tomcat.addContext('/', base.getAbsolutePath)
root_ctx.addMimeMapping('css', 'text/css')
root_ctx.setLoader(WebappLoader.new(JRuby.runtime.jruby_class_loader))
root_ctx.getJarScanner.setScanManifest(false)
ctx_cfg = ContextConfig.new
ctx_cfg.setDefaultWebXml(tomcat.noDefaultWebXmlPath)
root_ctx.addLifecycleListener(ctx_cfg)
tomcat.start
This is what we've been using. However it doesn't work - Tomcat doesn't
find and load the Listeners and Servlets. Where are we erring?
Another problem that I see with this code is our "manual" adding of a
mime mapping. Is there a "smarter" way to do that with Tomcat's
defaults? We saw Tomcat.DEFAULT_MIME_MAPPINGS but it is private...
Thanks!
