it may be that cyrus' TextFilterFactory approach causes the
classloading problem i'm seeing, but i can't say for sure, because to
be honest, classloading makes my head spin :) what do you think?
yeah, classloading is not trivial stuff. I really suggest to move the
text filter class. Or is there a specific reason why you want to keep the
classes in the webapp?
The text filter is very specific to the webapp (it does some custom
indexing of the iCalendar data - not a straight text extraction as other
text filters do) and it has a dependency on iCalendar libraries for
parsing. Thus a whole bunch of stuff, not just the text filter, would have
to be moved up to the tomcat class loader - this seems like a bad layering
violation to me.
