different versions of libraries
Hi! I need to use a really new version of xalan/xerces in one of my applications. Where should I put the .jars to make application specific? Is it even possible? -- Andreas Andersson IT Dept.

From: Andreas Andersson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I need to use a really new version of xalan/xerces in one of my applications. Where should I put the .jars to make application specific? The only place where it can be application-specific is in the webapp's WEB-INF/lib. Is it even possible? Depends on your version of Tomcat - which version are you using? I've placed them in WEB-INF/lib (apparently successfully - certainly good enough for the app) under Tomcat 5.0.28. For Tomcat 4, I have a separate installation with some new versions dropped in. I use this installation for one rather poorly-behaved app that insists on using its own version of Xerces, but it's not application-specific as other webapps on the same instance would see the same version. - Peter - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That sounds just like my problem. I just tomcat 4.1.31 and one of my apps needs an old (and poorly functioning) version av xerces/xalan. It seems to me that the files I place under WEB-INF/lib isn't really read at all, at least not overriding the other once. I guess that a separat install is the only way to go :( -- Andreas Andersson IT Dept.

Re: different versions of libraries
WEB-INF/lib of the app you need it in. That's the simple answer. For a complete answer, read: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html and the servlet spec --David Andreas Andersson wrote: Hi!
