The J2EE Product Provider is required to publish the installed application<br />
components on the industry-standard protocols. This specification defines the<br />
mapping of servlets and JSP pages to the HTTP and HTTPS protocols, and the<br />
mapping of EJB to IIOP.<br />
2.5.4 Deployment Descriptors<br />
Deployment descriptors are used to communicate the needs of application<br />
components to the Deployer. The deployment descriptor is a contract between<br />
the Application Component Provider or Assembler and the Deployer. The<br />
Application Component Provider or Assembler is required to specify the<br />
application component’s external resource requirements, security requirements,<br />
environment parameters, etc. in the component’s deployment descriptor. The<br />
J2EE Product Provider is required to provide a deployment tool that interprets<br />
the J2EE deployment descriptors and allows the Deployer to map the<br />
application component’s requirements to the capabilities of a specific J2EE<br />
product and environment.<br />
