Introduction

jetty-env.xml is an optional Jetty configuration file that you can place in your webapp's WEB-INF directory to configure JNDI resources specifically for that webapp. The format of jetty-web.xml is the same as jetty.xml -- it is an XML mapping of the Jetty API.

When Jetty deploys a web application, it automatically looks for a file called WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml within the web application (or WAR), and sets up the webapp naming environment so that naming references in the WEB-INF/web.xml file can be resolved from the information provided in the WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml and jetty.xml files. note
