Here is what I would like to do: make an un-jar'd class library available to ONE or ALL web apps. And NOT place them in pre-designated directories. Reason: I have a development box that runs Tomcat, Orion Server and Web Logic. It also runs non-webapps. I have a common set of classes used by all. Don't want to maintain multiple copies of the common class library. I understand that a webapp is supposed to be a self contained deployment unit, but it seems that classes should, optionally, be allowed in user defined paths. In Orion Server, this can be accomplished by adding a classpath entry to orion-web.xml (one web app) or server.xml (all web-apps). How can this be done in Tomcat?
