Bonjour, When many webapps use the same pakages, like utility classes, it would be interressant to share them to have only one copy of the class files. With Tomcat 3.1, if you add a list of paths in the shell variable "appClassPath", tomcat can find classes outside the directory WEB-INF/classes . eg. set appClassPath=%myPaths%;%appJars%;%sysJars% With tomcat 4.0, I try to give itomcat my list of paths which are already in the the shell variable "CLASSPATH" , but it does'nt work. My "little" modify in catalina.bat : set CP=%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\bootstrap.jar;%JAVA_HOME%\lib\tools.jar set CLASSPATH=%CP%;%CLASSPATH% echo --Using CLASSPATH: %CLASSPATH% I read standardClassLoader.java and I understand (?) that the class loader try to find the classes in a list of "repositories". How to add "repository" in the standardClassLoader to allow it to find classes in an other directory than WEB-INF/classes ? Is it possible to specify paths in the node "loader" ? I have not found the documentation of the node "loader" of the configuration file "server.xml". Someone try to write it ? Thanks.
