classpath problem

[Agarwal, Naresh]

Hi   I am using Tomcat 4.1 for deploying my AXIS applications. When I create a AXIS application, then I should put the class and jar files in   TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\classes and TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib respectively.   However, I don't want to keep class and jar files at these locations. Is there a  way out for this? Can I keep the class/jar files at some other location and then set the Tomcat classpath according?   thanks, Naresh Agarwal
