Patel Chirag
The deployment descriptor provides control of:
1.URL mapping (from URLs to files) 2.Initialization parameters 3.Timeout settings 4.Directory listings 5.Error pages 6.Security constraints, client authentication 7.Filters and listeners
we have web.config in asp.net and in java we have Deployment Descriptor, both are the same things they contain the general configartion of the application.
