Class SetNextNamingRule

java.lang.Object
org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Rule
org.apache.catalina.startup.SetNextNamingRule
public class SetNextNamingRule extends Rule
Rule implementation that calls a method on the (top-1) (parent) object, passing the top object (child) as an argument. It is commonly used to establish parent-child relationships.

This rule now supports more flexible method matching by default. It is possible that this may break (some) code written against release 1.1.1 or earlier.
