I think there may be a problem with resource loading in TC3.3. If I add a property file to the app class path by setting org.apache.tomcat.apps.classpath, then the call to ResourceBundle.getBundle("foo") doesn't find it. Nor does it get located if I place the said property file in tomcat/lib/apps. In fact, the only way I have been able to find it is to override the classpath in the tomcat script.
The good news is that, by setting org.apache.tomcat.apps.classpath, initClassLoaders() does set the AppsLoader class to a ClassLoader which contains my properties file. The bad news is this doesn't seem to be the deafult loader used in the call to ResourceBundle.getBundle("foo"). The only thing I can think of trying is ResourceBundle.getBundle("foo", Locale.getDefault(), magic.ContextManager.getAppsLoader()); but that binds the code to the Tomcat container. My next step is to rebuild the jdk with debugging info to see which loader is actually being used in ResourceBundle.getBundle, but I appreciate any insight in the interim.
