Servlet-Mapping in OFBiz

[madppiper-2]

Hey there,

I am trying to add a simple servlet to my application. For that I have added the following to the web.xml file:

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>ImageServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.apache.taglibs.image.ImageServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>


and

      <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>ImageServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/gen-image/*</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>


I was hoping that this would call the Image-Servlet whenever I request the gen-image url. However, the way ofbiz is setup I get the feeling that any call is directly relocated to /control and hence the above doesn't work. I tried looking at the product/facility web.xml file, since there is something similar going on with the ShippingAPI.dll file, but no use... do i need to add the servlet as a request-map to the controller.xml before the above works?

it can define servlet there, you should check the allowedPaths
of ContextFilter

I don't think your required this in ofbiz, instead use a java event in
request mapping in controller.xml.
