I am not able to use web.xml with spring boot in war deployment.
I am aware that there are ways of converting web.xml using @Configuration, but I must stick with web.xml for now. I was following the official document, here: http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/howto-traditional-deployment.html#howto-create-a-deployable-war-file-for-older-containers
I was able to deploy my application in WAR file, but it was not using web.xml.
Maybe I am not following the step 85.2 correctly, as I am not sure what it means by "load an applicationContext via a DispatcherServlet":
85.2 Create a deployable war file for older servlet containers
Older Servlet containers don’t have support for the ServletContextInitializer bootstrap process used in Servlet 3.0. You can still use Spring and Spring Boot in these containers but you are going to need to add a web.xml to your application and configure it to load an ApplicationContext via a DispatcherServlet.
Can you guide me or point me to any examples or working sample project using web.xml in spring boot? I am using weblogic server.
