The safest, most portable[1] way to add to a classpath is to wrap your
data in a JAR and place that in one of:
{context}/WEB-INF/lib
{tomcat install}/common/lib
{tomcat install}/shared/lib
JARs in these directories are picked up automagically by Tomcat, so
there's no need to alter a file.
Refer to the Tomcat classloader doc to decide where to put the JAR.
(Hint: most likely, under {context}/WEB-INF/lib).
-QM
[1] = "portable" between different versions of Tomcat, as well as
between different (spec-compliant) containers.
