Mapping all URLs to one servlet [message #85272]

First, many thanks for the work that you're doing on Server-Side
Equinox. It's opening up a whole new world of possibilities for us.

I understand that servlet filters aren't supported by Equinox (bug
#128068), but is it possible via some other means for me to have Equinox
direct *all* URLs to one servlet? I'm trying to use Equinox with the
Restlet API to create some REST web services that depend on Eclipse
plugins and I need to do the equivalent of the following web.xml (from
the Restlet FAQ):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
<display-name>Test servlet</display-name>
<context-param>
<param-name>org.restlet.application</param-name>
<param-value>
com.testServlet.TestServletApplication
</param-value>
</context-param>


<servlet>
<servlet-name>ServerServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
com.noelios.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet
</servlet-class>
</servlet>


<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>ServerServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

In other words, I want Equinox to map ALL URLs to the ServerServlet
servlet. I wish I could just extend the
org.eclipse.equinox.http.registry.servlets extension point with a
servlet alias of "*", but that doesn't work.

Is there a way for me to work around this issue? Some way to easily
replace the mechanism that Equinox uses to delegate work to servlets,
perhaps?

Thank you!
Jeff

You register the alias of the servlet to be "/". You can do this via the
extension point

<extension point="org.eclipse.equinox.http.registry.servlets">
<servlet alias="/" class="myservlet.Servlet">
</servlet>
</extension>
