Hello !
I need support regarding integration of a tomcat web application with the jetty webserver. My application is more complex (using it's own context.xml) so that I did not find any examples how to deal with it.
My tomcat webapp project has following file structure (maven compatible):
-------------------------------
* src/main/java
* src/main/webapp
+ META-INF (contains the context.xml file with application specific properties like "<Environment>...", "<Logger>...", "<Valve...>" and "<Resource ...>")+ jsps (contains jsp files)
+ WEB-INF (contains the web.xml file with properties like "servlet-mapping" or "servlet")
index.jsp
-------------------------------
Now I want to start the maven jetty:run goal. It exits with following exception because my own class InitializeApplication attempts to read some properties from the application context file (META-INF/context.xml).
The reason for this exception is the missing context file that seems not to be managed by jetty. Now my questions:
1. is there any way to execute a tomcat application with both, tomcat and jetty, without configuration changes (perhaps contextHandlers node in the pom.xml, e.g. '<contextHandler implementation="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext"> ....' or something similar)?
2. if changes are necessary what should be changed (conversion of the tomcat-specific context.xml into the jetty-specific xml structure and so on...).

-----------------------------
Source Code (InitializeApplication):
-----------------------------
Context appCtx = (Context)(new InitialContext()).lookup("java:comp/env");
//...code
String string = (String)(appCtx.lookup("baseLogDir"));
// here the exception is thrown because appCtx does not contain "baseLogDir" key ===> context.xml has not been recognized by jetty!!
if( string == null ) throw new ConfigurationLoadException(...);
