            Bug ID: 54770
           Summary: Add jarsToScan properties to counteract jarsToSkip
                    exclusions; support per-web-app properties; port to
                    Java 7
           Product: Tomcat 8
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: nicho...@nicholaswilliams.net
    Classification: Unclassified

As discussed here [1] and here [2], Tomcat needs a set of jarsToScan properties
to counteract jarsToSkip properties. General thoughts through the discussions:

> First of all, how does it work? The suggestion is:
> If jarsToScan matches, scan it
> else if jarsToSkip matches, skip it
> else scan it

> three new system properties
> tomcat.util.scan.DefaultJarScanner.jarsToScan
> org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.jarsToScan
> org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig.jarsToScan

Discussions also indicated general support for the need to be able to have
different jarsToScan/jarsToSkip settings per web application, possibly in the
form of a /WEB-INF/tomcat.[properties | xml] file, or new settings in
/META-INF/context.xml. Such a solution could also be used to accomplish the
suggestion at bug 52924.
