Hi :-) I suggest you try the following:
* if you want use a Class in "runtime"(you don't know it in compiling-time),
you can use Java-Reflection; or you can use:
- "new MyUtility(...)"
- MyUtility.class.newInstance()...
* normally, the utility class is initialized in:
- init(...) of Servlet
- ServletContextListener (Servlet 2.3)
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-2001/jw-0126-servletapi_p.html
* you can select which ClassLoader will load MyUtility,
for example, with TC4.0-b5, I can do it by putting
MyUtility in different folder.
- TOMCAT_HOME/classes(for unpacked class file),
TOMCAT_HOME/lib(for jar file)
- WEB-INF/classes(for unpacked class file), WEB-INF/lib(for jar file)
- ...
have a nice day :-)
