Following is the code which one would want to define in web.xml. This defines configuration for above given servlet.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>fileIOController</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.vitalflux.core.FileIOController</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>fileIOController</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/vitalflux/uploadfile</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
