              Status: Pull Request Sent  (was: Open)
    Git Pull Request: https://github.com/seam/solder/pull/69


As discussed with Jason the WebXmlLocator I wrote for Seam Faces as part of my work on SEAMFACES-185 should be moved to Solder.

This pull request contains all the relevant classes including the unit tests.

My next steps for this issue will be:

# Create some documentation for the WebXmlLocator for the Solder reference guide
# Check whether it would be possible to add some Arquillian test for the locator implementations
# Remove the WebXmlLocator from Seam Faces and use the classes provided by Solder

> In Seam Faces, we would like to access the web.xml file from within a CDI extension (SEAMFACES-185).  This is currently not possible to do in a portable way, as the ServletContext is not available from CDI extensions (at least not in EE environments).
> In servlet environments, we can simply delegate to the ServletContext, but in EE environments, we may have to provide implementation specific ways of loading the web.xml file.
