How do I configure the web.xml for multiple restlet applications?

restlet

Solution

Simply add additional `<servlet>` and `<servlet-mapping>` blocks to your `web.xml`. For example, I've got separate Restlet applications for user requests and admin requests. My `web.xml` looks like this:

<!-- user servlet -->
<servlet>
  <servlet-name>user</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>org.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet</servlet-class>
  <init-param>
    <param-name>org.restlet.application</param-name>
    <param-value>com.myapp.server.resource.user.UserApplication</param-value>
  </init-param>
  <init-param>
    <param-name>org.restlet.clients</param-name>
    <param-value>HTTP HTTPS</param-value>
  </init-param>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>user</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/user/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<!-- admin servlet -->
<servlet>
  <servlet-name>admin</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>org.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet</servlet-class>
  <init-param>
    <param-name>org.restlet.application</param-name>
    <param-value>com.myapp.server.resource.admin.AdminApplication</param-value>
  </init-param>
  <init-param>
    <param-name>org.restlet.clients</param-name>
    <param-value>HTTP HTTPS</param-value>
  </init-param>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>admin</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/admin/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Problem

I want to create a servlet to act as the container for a bunch of restlet applications. I have done servlet for one restlet application but I don't see how I can revise the web.xml to accommodate many applications. Here is web.xml for a single restlet: (taken almost verbatim from "Restlet in Action MEAP"): ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ... <display-name>Servlet engine as a container of Restlet applications</display-name> <servlet> <servlet-name>CompanyServerApplication</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>org.restlet.application</param-name> <param-value>server.CompanyServerApplication</param-value> </init-param> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>CompanyServerApplication</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app> ```
