Abstract
The invention provides a system and method for providing pluggable pattern matching for servlets. This feature allows application servers that incorporate the invention to support non-J2EE pattern matching schemes in their http request resolution. The pluggable pattern matching feature is targeted primarily at customers who want to implement custom URL matching patterns. Since this feature is not J2EE compliant, some other form of configuration is necessary. In one embodiment an XML file (weblogic.xml) is used to configure the new pattern matching utilities. By modifying the settings in the weblogic.xml file, users are able to plug their own custom pattern matching utility classes into the weblogic server.
