Re: shared jars amongst web apps.

Well, shared/lib is better than common/lib (since it doesn't affect the
Tomcat classes).  A declared servlet (via servlet in web.xml) will create
a new instance of the class for each context that it is used (actually, for
each servlet declaration that it is used).  This actually holds true for
the (deprecated) Invoker mapping as well.

 Does anybody know of a location where I can put a jar file that is shared
 among the web apps of a tomcat instance, but not thought out all
instances.
 i.e. putting a jar in common/ would share that file throughout all
instances
 of tomcat, which I do  not want.  Short of explicitly including the
location
 in class path, is there a way to do this?

 Thanks

RE: shared jars amongst web apps.

2002-10-29 Thread Cox, Charlie
sounds like you want each webapp to have its own instance of
statics,singletons,etc within your jar. In order to do this, you will need
to copy the jar into each WEB-INF/lib where it is needed (and allow each
with catalina.policy if applicable)
