How i can place all my servlet files in a different folder

[Rashmi Pant]

Hi,
All please anybody tell me how i can place all my servlet files in a different folder and can run them.
Consider if i have a small project havinf 3-4 servlet files and i want to put it in a saperate directory and want to run it then how i can do do so.
Also tell me how should i map servlet if i am putting my servlet files in a different folder.
I do not want to place my servlet file in default folder or you can say testing folder of Tomcat.
I am using Tomcat5 and jdk1.5
Please help me
Thanks to all

What you are calling folders are actually packages, so there's no problem putting your servlets in different packages.
For example, two different servlets in two different packages :
/myapp/WEB-INF/classes/management/AdminServlet.class
/myapp/WEB-INF/classes/user/ListingServlet.class

You can declare them separately.

<servlet>
<servlet-name>AdminServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>management.AdminServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>ListingServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>user.ListingServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

I leave you figure out how to map different urls to different servlets.
