93 <p>The <strong>Context</strong> element represents a <em>web
94 application</em>, which is run within a particular virtual host.
95 Each web application is based on a <em>Web Application Archive</em>
96 (WAR) file, or a corresponding directory containing the corresponding
97 unpacked contents, as described in the Servlet Specification (version
98 2.2 or later). For more information about web application archives,
99 you can download the
100 <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/Specifications">Servlet
101 Specification</a>, and review the Tomcat
102 <a href="../appdev/index.html">Application Developer's Guide</a>.</p>
103
104 <p>The web application used to process each HTTP request is selected
105 by Catalina based on matching the longest possible prefix of the
106 Request URI against the <em>context path</em> of each defined Context.
107 Once selected, that Context will select an appropriate servlet to
108 process the incoming request, according to the servlet mappings defined
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]109 by the web application deployment.</p>

刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]112 wish. Each such Context MUST have a unique context name within a virtual
113 host. The context path does not need to be unique (see <em>parallel
114 deployment</em> below). In addition, a Context must be present with a
115 context path equal to
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]116 a zero-length string. This Context becomes the <em>default</em>
117 web application for this virtual host, and is used to process all
118 requests that do not match any other Context's context path.</p>

214 performance reasons and to allow flexibility in versioning schemes. String
215 comparisons are used to determine version order. If version is not specified,
216 it is treated as the empty string.
217 Therefore,

Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]251 <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/</code> and renamed to
刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]252 application's base file name plus a ".xml" extension.</li>
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]253 <li>In individual files (with a ".xml" extension) in the

刘洪青6266f992017-05-15 21:21:03 +0800[diff] [blame^]255 The context path and version will be derived from the base name of the file
Hongqing Liufd5ee812014-05-10 16:32:51 +0800[diff] [blame]256 (the file name less the .xml extension). This file will always take precedence
257 over any context.xml file packaged in the web application's META-INF
258 directory.</li>
259 <li>Inside a <a href="host.html">Host</a> element in the main
260 <code>conf/server.xml</code>.</li>
261 </ul>
262
263 <p>Default <strong>Context</strong> elements may be defined that apply to
264 multiple web applications. Configuration for an individual web application
265 will override anything configured in one of these defaults. Any nested
266 elements, e.g. &lt;Resource&gt; elements, that are defined in a default
267 <strong>Context</strong> will be created once for each
268 <strong>Context</strong> to which the default applies. They will <b>not</b> be
269 shared between <strong>Context</strong> elements.
270 </p>
271 <ul>
272 <li>In the <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/context.xml</code> file:
273 the Context element information will be loaded by all web applications.</li>
274 <li>In the
275 <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/context.xml.default</code>
276 file: the Context element information will be loaded by all web applications
277 of that host.</li>
278 </ul>
279
280 <p>With the exception of server.xml, files that define <strong>Context
281 </strong> elements may only define a single <strong>Context</strong> element.
282 </p>
283
284 <p>In addition to explicitly specified Context elements, there are
285 several techniques by which Context elements can be created automatically
286 for you. See <a href="host.html#Automatic_Application_Deployment">
287 Automatic Application Deployment</a> and
288 <a href="host.html#User_Web_Applications">User Web Applications</a>
289 for more information.</p>
290
291 <p>To define multiple contexts that use a single WAR file or directory,
292 use one of the options described in the <a href="#Naming">Naming</a>
293 section above for creating a <strong>Context</strong> that has a path
294 that is not related to the base file name.</p>

1293 <p>During development it may be more productive to avoid copying files (static
1294 resources, JSPs, classes, jars...) and configure tomcat to use files from their
1295 source locations. To do that, several customisations of the context configuration are
1296 required:</p>
1297 <ul>
1298 <li>The <code>VirtualDirContext</code> implementation of
1299 <a href="resources.html">Resources</a></li>
1300 <li>The <code>VirtualWebappLoader</code> implementation of
1301 <a href="loader.html">Loader</a></li>
1302 <li><code>scanAllDirectories="true"</code> on the <a href="jar-scanner.html">JarScanner</a></li>
1303 </ul>
1304 <p>To illustrate this feature, here is an example of a standard maven webapp source tree:</p>
1305
1306<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>mywebapp/
1307 src/
1308 main/
1309 java/
1310 resources/
1311 webapp/
1312 WEB-INF/
1313 classes/
1314 target/
1315 classes/
1316</code></pre></div>
1317
1318 <p>To deploy such an application (assuming it also uses the log4j maven artefact),
1319 the context configuration looks like:</p>
1320
1321<div class="codeBox"><pre class="wrap"><code>&lt;Context path="/mywebapp" docBase="/Users/theuser/mywebapp/src/main/webapp"&gt;
1322 &lt;Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.VirtualDirContext"
1323 extraResourcePaths="/WEB-INF/classes=/Users/theuser/mywebapp/target/classes" /&gt;
1324 &lt;Loader className="org.apache.catalina.loader.VirtualWebappLoader"
1325 virtualClasspath="/Users/theuser/mywebapp/target/classes;/Users/theuser/.m2/repository/log4j/log4j/1.2.15/log4j-1.2.15.jar" /&gt;
1326 &lt;JarScanner scanAllDirectories="true" /&gt;
1327&lt;/Context&gt;
1328</code></pre></div>
1329
1330 <p>Here is another example where the webapp serves pictures under /pictures and movies
1331 under /movies and also depends on another maven project mylib that would normally
1332 produce a jar to be packaged in WEB-INF/lib:</p>

1351 WEB-INF/
1352 classes/
1353 target/
1354 classes/
1355</code></pre></div>
1356
1357 <p>The configuration is:</p>
1358
1359<div class="codeBox"><pre class="wrap"><code>&lt;Context path="/mywebapp" docBase="/Users/theuser/mywebapp/src/main/webapp"&gt;
1360 &lt;Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.VirtualDirContext"

1365&lt;/Context&gt;
1366</code></pre></div>
