Larry,
We tried the shared.loader suggestion and it seems to be working fine.
Thanks very much for the suggestion.

Since you are using Tomcat 5, check out the shared.loader

instead of catalina.base, or add an additional path.
Cheers,

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll look into these and post back either way.

I understand the arguments on both sides, but tend to prefer the ease of
maintenance of what you call the single point of change in
shared/lib. Is it possible to make this configurable, so both sides
can be happy? Or is that too complex?

Hi,

This approach sounds promising...would you mind elaborating just a little
on
what you're thinking? I'm not sure I follow when you mention using a
symbolic link into WEB-INF/lib.
it would require UNIX or LINUX system. A simple symbolic link:
ln -s
aah...now I understand the reason it sounded foreign to me. We are a Windows
shop so, I'm not sure we have the same capability.

I run cygwin (a linux like application/environment) on my windows box at
home. When I create a symbolic link in that system and look at it frm
the windows side of it, it IS a shortcut.
try itI think it may work, but I am not sure that tomcat will see it
as cygwin does. Curious.

I tend to agree with your postion. I'm not sure that Tomcat will see the
native Windows shortcut. I'll see if we can figure out how to do it. If you
have any ideas I'm all ears.
It sure would be nice if Tomcat had the ability to have the shared lib see
down the hierarchy or be able to put jars
Hi,
this sounds like repackage would be a huge job.
If yes, I would suggest: learn ant
If not: You have to reload the apps anyway. So what do you achieve?
just my 2 cents.
