is this possible with SimpleUrlHandlerMapping?

[ben_cotton@ml.com]

I have a web application packaged and deployed to

localhost://$TOMCAT/webapps/app.war

I access the app via http://localhost:8080/app/index.html

Is there a way I can use the SimpleUrlHandlerMapping class to access the app via http://localhost:8080/app-root/app/index.html?

Is there a way to do this without having to change the app.war package name? Or must I have the deployment packaged as app-root.war to access it as http://localhost:8080/app-root/app/index.html?

thanks

You will need to deploy the application as app_root unless you are using an apache front end and you could use URL rewritting to achieve this without a code change.

However URL rewritting is an expensive feature and is not recommended
