correction -- error in question

should read:
this servlet will accept URI of form http://host/deployed-app/servlet/package.classname

this is a default servlet enabled with some versions of Tomcat.

this servlet provides an alternative way to invoke any servlet in the app -- somehow.

thanks
gary

  Subject: does glassfish have an "invoker servlet" ?


  in book core servlets and javaServer pages Vol 2 2nd edition -

  there is discussion in Tomcat of "invoker servlet",

  this servlet will accept URI of form http:/host:deployed-app/servlet/package.classname

  2 questions:

  1 -- does glassfish have one ? -- i think not.

  2 -- if glassfish did would there have to be info in the default-web.xml or some application specific web.xml ? i think yes.

  thanks again
