            Bug ID: 54754
           Summary: WebSocket endpoint servlet mappings shadowed by "/"
                    mapping
           Product: Tomcat 8
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: rstoyanc...@yahoo.com
    Classification: Unclassified

Currently WebSocket endpoints are mapped via Servlet mappings, which does not
appear to work if another Servlet is mapped with "/" or "/*". The root servlet
mapping in particular is very commonly preferred over mapping by prefix (e.g.
"/app/*") or by extension ("/*.do") in order to keep URLs meaningful and
without any additional path segments or extension (see for example [1]).

Replacing WsServlet with WsFilter would allow WebSocket endpoints to be mapped
to specific paths without interfering with Servlet mappings.
