            Bug ID: 54386
           Summary: [FR] Jar's static content extraction for CDN from
                    (JSR315-§10.10)
           Product: Tomcat 8
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Packaging
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: p.ra...@gmx.net
    Classification: Unclassified

If we understand JAR as an Java-Archive that contains Java and static resources
Java needs. The functionality of a Content-Delivery-Network-Server has a clash
with it: 
   even if the WAR will be exploded to an directory inside the
deployment-directory the static resouces in the
lib/any.jar!/META-INF/resources/ wont get exploded too. 

"All of the above static content can also be packaged in a JAR file with the
content listed above packaged in the META-INF/resources directory of the jar
file. The JAR file can then be included in the WEB-INF/lib directory of the web 
application. "(JSR315§10.10)

Ok, this does *not* automatically claim to explode the static content of the
jar's. But i think this would be a nice feature so the CDN must *not* explode
the resources of the class-loader.

Please do not say: Ok this is a responsibility of the CDN-Server, Tomcat is a
Applicationserver. If you think so, please mark this FR as "wont be fixed".
