What is the difference between the getContextPath of ServletRequest and ServletContext?
According to the java doc..
"It is possible that a servlet container may match a context by more than one context path. In such cases the HttpServletRequest.getContextPath() will return the actual context path used by the request and it may differ from the path returned by this method. The context path returned by this method should be considered as the prime or preferred context path of the application.".
Can somebody please explain the difference?
Thanks in advance.
