I'm using CXF 2.6.6 for JAX-RS services. Because I would like to expose the
service interface to be usable by other webapps, I've separated the
serviceBean interface and implementation into 2 different jars:
service-api.jar and service.jar
In order for other webapps to utilize the api jar, I've deployed the jar to
tomcat/lib/my-libs and added an entry in catalina.properties:
common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib/my-libs/*.jar
However this does not work when CXF/Spring try to load the XML definition
of my service. If I place the API jar into my webapp's lib directory there
is no problem, but that defeats the purpose of having an API jar that can
be shared across webapps.
TIA for any input on the matter,
Tom
