The extra-classpath feature in web.xml does not seem to work under Windows.

1. Absolute path
Cocoon uses a non portable method when guessing whether the path is absolute
or not.

If I add the following to web.xml:
------
<init-param>
 <param-name>extra-classpath</param-name>
 <param-value>C:\extra-classes</param-value>
</init-param>
------
This path is not recognized as absolute. The resulting classpath is
(according to cocoon.log) "%tomcat%\webapps\cocoon\WEB-INF\C:\extra-classes"

Putting an extra \ in front of the path makes turns it to
"\C:\extra-classes" (which is not a valid path).

2. Relative path
Relative path do not seem to work either.
When I put this in web.xml:
------
<init-param>
 <param-name>extra-classpath</param-name>
 <param-value>extra-classes</param-value>
</init-param>
------
A directory is apparently added to the classpath:
(cocoon.log)
DEBUG   (2002-01-27) 17:55.48:739   [cocoon  ] (Unknown-URI)
Unknown-thread/Cocoon: Classpath =
...;%tomcat%\webapps\cocoon\WEB-INF\extra-classes

But my component.class is found by Cocoon under
%tomcat%\webapps\cocoon\WEB-INF\classes, but not under ...\extra-classes.

By browsing the archives, it seems some people allready experienced the
problem:
