Chapter 4. Web.xml Editor

The web.xml file inside the WEB-INF folder is a deployment descriptor file for a Web Application. It describes the servlets and other components and deployment properties that make up your application.

JBoss Tools add the web.xml file to created JSF project automatically and provides a special editor for its editing. See the Visual Web Tools guide for more information on the web.xml editor.
