Setting
the context-root using application.XML
The application.xml
file is found in the META-INF subdirectory of the application. This
is a deployment descriptor for enterprise applications. A sample snippet
of code where the <context-root> is found is given below.
_______________________________________________

<module>
...
...
<web>
<web-uri> resumeManager.war </web-uri>
<context-root> eResume </context-root>
</web>
</module>
The <context-root>
is the child of the <web> tag which is used to define an application
module in the server. This element has the <web-uri> and <context-root>
as the child elements. The tag <web-uri> gives the information
on the location of the web application module. This is given by the
path of the .war file. As the name specifies the element <context-root>
gives the context root for the application.
Lots of
samples on the usage of the application.xml file and the context root
element is given in the web. If you have access to this file in your
server, just check the elements and the values of the application.xml
and you will find how to use the different elements in this XML document.
