Hmm. I guess I jumped to a conclusion. Here's my situation: I've been running a web app for a while now that has multiple contexts that use the same docBase. What I have found is that the values of the static fields of my classes are not shared across contexts. I need to make all my contexts share these static fields.
I had asssumed that I was dealing with a different JVM per context, but simply having a different classloader per context would also cause this. So I shouldn't have said anything about JVMs. So I guess what I should ask is, how do I share static fields across Tomcat contexts? An alternate way to solve this would be to use just one context and somehow cause requests to multiple directories to resolve to a single directory. Doug - I think this is what you are suggesting, but I was under the impression that the "alias" is for hosts. I'll look into it now. Thanks in advance!

I think there's a little confusion here - there's only one JVM per Tomcat execution, regardless of the number of contexts deployed within a Tomcat.
