Application path of / or /* #33

Closed chkal closed 9 years ago

Original issue MVC_SPEC-32 created by Santiago Pericas-Geertsen:

The use of application paths like "/' or "/*" may result in problems for view engines that dispatch requests to the servlet container. Should MVC enforce the use of non-empty paths?

Comment by Santiago Pericas-Geertsen:

We should explore installing the JAX-RS servlet as a filter to get around this issue. The filter should proceed with the chain if it cannot process a view. Any application that grabs the root will need a web.xml to configure JAX-RS in this way for JSPs and Facelets forwards to work.

Issue resolved in RI. Spec document will continue to recommend the use of a non-empty application path.
