Mutiple context files - ContextLoaderListener

[bh5k]

The applicationContext.xml config file for our wep is getting quite large and has some logical groupings. We are currently using the org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListe ner to configure our application. As far as I can tell you can't have more than one config file using the ContextLoaderListener? I was reading more about the XmlWebApplicationContext and that it had support for multiple config files. Do you have to load the XmlWebApplicationContext using a ContextLoaderServlet in order to have more than one config file?

Thx,

Bryan

org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListe ner does support multiple XML config files.

  <context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>
       /WEB-INF/applicationContext1.xml
       /WEB-INF/applicationContext2.xml
       /WEB-INF/applicationContext3.xml
    </param-value>
   </context-param>

  <listener>
    <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
  </listener>
