SOAP context question

[Ryan Lambert]

Hello ! I spent lots of time trying to get my SOAP service deployed and available and visible to Tomcat - I finally got it working by creating a directory structure that matched the package name for my class under the /tomcat/webapps/soap/WEB-INF/classes/ directory. I want to know how can I deploy a war / jar file that does not have to be part of the soap.war and the soap directory strcuture ? If I create a war file with my SOAP server classes in it - how do I tell soap to look outside the tomcat/webapps/soap structure and also at the /tomcat/webapps/MYSERVICE structure ??? If I create a jar file with my SOAP server classes in it - where can I place the jar for it to be accessible / available to Tomcat ?
