Accessing deployment information programmatically

[diego.manilla]

Hi! I would like to know if there is an standard (i.e., no servlet
container specific) way of accessing deployment information contained
in web.xml, such as the security constraints. There is a class in J2EE
API, DeploymentConfiguration, that looks like what I'm looking for, but
I don't know if it's possible to get an instance of it.

Thanks in advance.

Dunno' (Ocker-speak for "I do not know").

OTOH. It is always possible for any Java application/applet
to "try" any action and "catch" the consequences (which
results in an answer).
