Editing web.xml 

Use

You edit the deployment descriptor in the relevant multipage editor. The multipage editor ensures that the elements in the generated XML file are complete and in the correct order.

The tabs of the multipage editor are organized to reflect the structure of the descriptor being edited. The final tab, Source, displays the generated XML file. You can also directly edit the XML file here.

Here, the general procedure for editing the file is described. For description of specific tasks, follow the links listed below.
