Introduction

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This document lists the document formats that will be used by the Java Platform,
Enterprise Edition (Java EE) deployment descriptors described by Java EE 5 and
later specifications. Prior to the J2EE 1.4 specifications, each Deployment
Descriptor was required to be valid with respect to a specific DTD that
describes the Deployment Descriptor. The DTDs are found in the J2EE section of
this document. Starting with the J2EE 1.4 specification, each specification
requires its Deployment Descriptor be validated with respect to an XML Schema
that is listed in the J2EE 1.4 document and this document. Note that deployment
descriptors defined by previous versions of the Java EE specification must also
be supported by all current Java EE products, and must continue to be validated
against the corresponding DTD or schema. Note that not all deployment
descriptors are updated for every release of Java EE, in which case the
deployment descriptor from the previous version is used.

The Java EE specification also requires support for the Java Persistence API and
the Bean Validation API. The Java Persistence API Schemas are available at
http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence/. The Bean Validation API Schemas are
available at http://www.jboss.org/xml/ns/javax/validation/configuration/.

This document describes how to use the Java EE schemas and provides a list of
XML Schemas for each deployment descriptor.

Using Java EE Schemas

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All Java EE 7 and newer Deployment Descriptor Schemas share the namespace
http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/. Each schema document contains a version
attribute that contains the version of the specification. For example, the XML
Schema document for the Servlet specification contains the version attribute
value "3.1", pertaining to the specific version of the specification as well as
the schema document itself.

Each Java EE XML Schema document's file name contains the specific version of
the related specification. This is introduced for convenience to locate specific
versions of the schema documents. However, Deployment Descriptor instances are
not required to refer to a specific file. Instead, an instance must specify the
version of the corresponding specification by using the version attribute. For
example, servlet Deployment Descriptor instances that must be processed with the
servlet 3.1 version must indicate the version within the version attribute of
the instance document, for example, "3.1". The Deployment Descriptor processors
use the version information to choose the appropriate version of the schema
document(s) to process the Deployment Descriptor instances.

A specific version of the Java EE specification contains a set of deployment
descriptor schemas to constitute the Java EE Schema. The common definitions are
contained in the javaee_<version>.xsd document that may be included by several
Java EE Deployment Descriptor schemas.

Java EE 8 Schema Resources
