Java servlets support packaging and deploying Web applications. A Web application archive (WAR) file contains all the components of a Web application including servlets, HTML files, JavaServer Pages (JSPs), classes, and other resources. See Chapter 21, “Creating Web Applications,” for more information.
Beginning with EAServer version 5.1, all servlets are
contained in a Web application.Any servlet that you do not explicitly
add to a Web application is added automatically to the EASDefault
Web application—see “The EASDefault Web application”.
EAServer includes a servlet container that provides network services for requests and responses, decodes MIME-based requests, formats MIME-based responses, and manages servlets.
