options for Web Applications

Web applications can be deployed in a number of ways, standalone war file or part of an ear file. Web applications deployment can be targeted to a specific servlet container (such as jetty or tomcat) or use container-neutral schema. Note that container-neutral schema also has a way to define container-specific parameters.

If deployed as part of an ear file, there are 2 ways to include web application deployment plan: include it in the geronimo-application.xml as it's own module element or include a reference to the web application deployment plan by using <alt-dd> element. The syntax of the web application element is the same in both cases, so please keep this in mind when you look at the examples.
