AW: Tomcat 5 - Proposal: move commons-fileupload-1.0.jar to commo n/lib

2004-05-26 Thread Detlef Pleiß
Hi Peter,  

 used the shared/lib directory to add your web app shared jars to your
catalina.base.

My point is not about how to get it to work.
My point is: if commons-fileupload-1.0.jar comes with the Tomcat
installation anyway,
why restrict its use by having it in the server directory. If it comes with
the installation anyway,
why not have it in a directory so normal web applications can use it right
away without moving or copying anything around. 

ciao - Det.

AW: Tomcat 5 - Proposal: move commons-fileupload-1.0.jar to commo n/lib

2004-05-26 Thread Detlef Pleiß
 Because we strongly encourage webapps to be self-contained (all their
dependencies in WEB-INF/lib).  Things like the XML  parser are the
exception, not the rule.  You don't need to move fileupload from server/lib
to common/lib: you can leave  it there for tomcat's internal use and put
your own version in your webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory.

ok, understood, thanks for your response!

 Your point about the Xerces version in the release note is good and will
be addressed shortly.  Thanks,
