The web-app element is the root of the deployment descriptor for a Geronimo web
application. Note that the sub-elements of this element should be as in the given order because it is
defined as a sequence.
This group keeps the usage of the contained JNDI environment
reference elements consistent across J2EE deployment descriptors.
This is the first part of the URL used to access the web application.
For example context-root of "Sample-App" will have URL of
http://host:port/Sample-App" and a context-root of "/" would be make this the default web application to the server.
If the web application is packaged as an EAR that can use application context
in the "application.xml". This element is necessary unless you want context root to default to the WAR
name.
This is the work directory that will be used by this application.
For Jetty this will be relative to jetty home which is var/jetty
by default.
For Tomcat this will be relative to "catalina.home".
Geronimo supports both Jetty and Tomcat web containers. This element is
for a web application needs to take container specific settings. It can hold either a Tomcat element or a Jetty element or both.
