## org.apache.cayenne.conf
Class ServletUtil

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.cayenne.conf.ServletUtil

    public class ServletUtil

extends Object

Configuration class that uses ServletContext to locate resources. This class is intended for use in J2EE servlet containers. It is compatible with containers following servlet specification version 2.2 and newer (e.g. Tomcat can be used starting from version 3).

ServletConfiguration resolves configuration file locations relative to the web application "WEB-INF" directory, and does not require them to be in the CLASSPATH (though CLASSPATH locations such as "/WEB-INF/classes" and "/WEB-INF/lib/some.jar" are supported as well). By default search for cayenne.xml is done in /WEB-INF/ folder. To specify an arbitrary context path in the web application (e.g. "/WEB-INF/cayenne"), use `cayenne.configuration.path` context parameters in `web.xml`.
