Here is a problem I am discussing on the soap-user list. I was wondering if the developers have any comments or knowledge as to how one is supposed to tell soap where to find application-specific java classes. I'm not subscribed to soap-dev so please cc me on replies.

I solved the problem differently - I added my jar to JBOSS_HOME/dist/lib/ext. But it accomplishes the same thing - it gets the jar into Tomcat's classpath. So, I am up and running but I don't think either of these solutions is ideal. I don't like junking up startup scripts or lib/ext with application-specific stuff. When I deploy a web application, I can add jars to the application's classpath by putting them WEB-INF/lib or adding to the manifest. Is there no way to do something similar in the soap deployment descriptor when deploying a soap service? It requires you to specify the name of the java class that implements the service but doesn't seem to provide any way for you to tell it where to find that class. This sounds like a deficiency to me...
