i've built a webapp in which a jar in the WEB-INF\lib directory contains the following extension dependency specifications in the manifest file of the jar file (under the META-INF directory):
Extension-List: mysql
mysql-Extension-Name: org.gjt.mm.mysql
mysql-Implementation-URL: http://192.168.0.4/mm.mysql-2.0.13-bin.jar
I have created the file mm.mysql-2.0.13-bin.jar with the following manifest file:
Extension-Name: org.gjt.mm.mysql
My problem is that no matter where I put this mm.mysql-2.0.13-bin.jar (whether it is available at the specified location, whether I put it in the tomcat common\lib, server\lib, lib, classes the javahome\jre\lib\ext dir etc, I can't get the application to work.
It detects the mysql package is missing and shows an error message, so it partly works: it detects the dependency, but apparently it cannot be adaquately resolved.
(Note that if I do not specify the extensions in both jar files and just put the mysql jar in the lib directory, everything works fine, but I wanted to test the extension mechanism as specified in the servlet 2.3 specs).
I run tomcat under windows (for local testing only) version 4.0.1, jdk 1.4.2
Does anyone have a clue about what I am doing wrong?
Hope you can help!
Hans
