Difference between applicationContext.xml and spri
Spring lets you define multiple contexts in a parent-child hierarchy.
The applicationContext.xml defines the beans for the "root webapp context", i.e. the context associated with the webapp.
The spring-servlet.xml (or whatever else you call it) defines the beans for one servlet‘s app context. There can be many of these in a webapp, one per Spring servlet (e.g. spring1-servlet.xml for servlet spring1, spring2-servlet.xml for servlet spring2).
Beans in spring-servlet.xml can reference beans in applicationContext.xml, but not vice versa.
All Spring MVC controllers must go in the spring-servlet.xml context.
In most simple cases, the applicationContext.xml context is unnecessary. It is generally used to contain beans that are shared between all servlets in a webapp. If you only have one servlet, then there‘s not really much point, unless you have a specific use for it.
Question:
why would you have multiple spring servlets ?
it is sometimes useful to separate parts of your application that could otherwise conflict in the same context. As an example you may have ReST services and standard views, you may then have different view resolvers or security concerns for the services as to the views.
