WebAppExtension

Webapp module deployment descriptor extensions for WebSphere. The J2EE specification defines standard deployment descriptors across all J2EE compliant server platforms. These extensions are specific to the WebSphere programming model which provides features over and beyond that of the J2EE specification.
