/**
 * Configuration class that uses ServletContext to locate resources. This class is
 * intended for use in J2EE servlet containers. It is compatible with containers following
 * servlet specification version 2.2 and newer (e.g. Tomcat can be used starting from
 * version 3).
 * 
 * ServletConfiguration resolves configuration file locations relative to the web
 * application "WEB-INF" directory, and does not require them to be in the CLASSPATH
 * (though CLASSPATH locations such as "/WEB-INF/classes" and "/WEB-INF/lib/some.jar" are
 * supported as well). By default search for cayenne.xml is done in /WEB-INF/ folder. To
 * specify an arbitrary context path in the web application (e.g. "/WEB-INF/cayenne"), use
 * cayenne.configuration.path context parameters in web.xml.
