When creating my context snippet, i used the snippet for the tomcat admin application as a template. I just realized that I did not remove the attribute ' privileged="true" ' When removing this attribute, the application works as expected, that is, classes in jar-files which are located in $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib are found by the application.
So I suppose that this attribute affects the way that tomcat loads classes for applications. Anyway, things now work as expected.
