JavaServer Pages (JSPs) and Servlets

This section contains information specific to JSPs and servlets that may be pertinent to
your applications.
Some changes will be necessary in code (both Java and HTML) where the code
refers to URLs that may be different when servlets and JSPs are deployed in a
Web Application other than the default Web Application. See
and Configuration
information. If relative URLs are used and all components are contained in the
same Web Application, these changes are not necessary.
Only serializable objects may be stored in a session if your application is
intended to be distributable.

web.xml

Access control by an ACL has been replaced with security-constraint based
access control in the web application deployment descriptor.

weblogic.servlet.proxy.HttpClusterServlet
