以编程方式配置嵌入式Tomcat 8应用程序

Question

Is there a way to create an application with embedded Tomcat 8 that is configured programmatically (not through a web.xml)? I'm trying to start this application via main() and not through Maven's Tomcat plugin.

Answer 1

I honestly don't quite understand what you're trying to do, but Tomcat 8 supports Servlet spec 3.1. Anything after spec 3.0 (tomcat 7) can implement a ServletContainerInitializer. This should give you what you want.

public class ServletInitializer implements ServletContainerInitializer {

public void onStartup(Set<Class<?>> c, ServletContext cx) {
   // register stuff here
}
