Cool. I guess a Valve is good for that type of thing :)
I think Carl and Ralph are right about the ClassClassException being a ClassLoader issue. I've seen similar things before when using custom Realms, JNDI resources etc.
Our build process generates a minimal jar for deploying to common/lib which contains all the classes needed by the container classloaders. These classes are excluded from the webapp jars and all is happy. You have to be really careful about dependencies though or virtually all your webapp ends up in common/lib.
Try jarring up your info object and putting in common/lib (or common/classes).
Or you could use reflection as I've just read in your reply to Ralph ;)
Good weekend all,

Jon,
To answer your query, I'm using a custom valve to instrument Tomcat with response time monitoring, as part of the project I'm working on...

An invocation of a Tomcat Valve gives you a Request object. This is a facade to a ServletRequest, which you can access via the getRequest() method. You could set your info object as an attribute on the ServletRequest. This should then be visible to your filter.

Just curious, why the custom Valve?
