Hi,

Is it possible to configure the system to fetch the "hardcoded" ServletContext resource from a directory other than /WEB-INF.

For example, the spring docs state that if this is in the web.xml:

<!-- take especial notice of the name of this servlet -->
<servlet>
<servlet-name>spring-ws</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.springframework.ws.transport.http.Messag eDispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

there needs to have a corresponding file named spring-ws-servlet.xml in the WEB-INF directory. I would like to put this file elsewhere (basically a system that allows for the extension of web services without modifying the original WAR file). Is this possible?

I suspect that the spring implementation is using a file url and not a classpath url. A classpath url would do the trick... is there a way to instruct the spring framework to use a different strategy when loading servlet context resource files?

Tks
