I think the shared libraries may solve this issue for a lot of people.
Do you have some more thoughts on how this capability may be made
available to users? Looking at what was checked in already it
seems that the user would have to create an array of the libDirs in
code via some home-grown mechanism and then invoke your class to
update the classpath. Do you already have plans for an easier way
to expose this to the users (perhaps via some server configuration
or some new elements on the deployment plans to add new shared
libraries)?
The code is not finished :) Is that is will work exactly like
tomcat. The code I checked is a GBean service that will be in a
standard configuration installed into the server. As we deploy j2ee
applications they why have a dependency on this configuration. When
the gbean in this configuration is started it will add the classes
and libraries to the class loader. This will happen automatically
without any user interaction.
