Consider the situation you are suggesting: that Tomcat use web-fragments or metadata discovery (or SCIs, or @Annotations, etc.). If you were to delete *those* files, classes, etc. then Tomcat wouldn't work either. Would that be considered a bug? If you interfere with the container's mechanism to provide its default (and spec-required) services, then I'm sorry, but you shouldn't complain that the server no longer provides those services properly. If you remove the rotor from a helicopter, don't complain that it won't fly and then point to all the airplanes in the area to demonstrate that they fly just fine without rotors. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSAseLAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRY1NYQALxKAep/1x96XBC1KFME+d31 Ybt/0GT658bU+3+ED8Gf7wC1mJZUrSQV89pr3HJgS1uLhOv4NfHqGjJbWXrJhhs+ VlERpEbUzS+AJSqG6H0MQxS/NyvyScGjXcasSG4PAkuoZk48HqDNRCCw0TgC90+6 7WF35KD5X0AynLjfCo0uoSK+0+8pwCpy8y9GDPpXP5zgTOSbxcKBDyP469wxJQjo cbDvrc1Bfn4DkqlaOhmitd8gF/aSysT1WjOwy2bF4zdr0VlseM/D3Vx9W1f7zX3y W3UzVhRryjaotlugZgQ/vXMC8c19IZ86GqAKN6ALYFIjtYbPz6e7V5ixJjxyWyQ5 2zb6v3+3Obd6zV87m9JcceZLinWhkGCkfh1GLzrOeuUrAS5VPa2J5Ca37fgeRPzC tQPRx8fuRcA5cobkDTTSeQLoLvPTulgvVM5oVfbP53/B6rKlYLk2XwEsYzQamGee omvPgYCu1j/8LG8rz0hAHDs0iDA6st7HnOWyvxS+rnddG2hq8Ddfh+saTD3JLj27 P03sncY90K5hQHcA4NMo5s0gF5afqXkBSdykXhyD/iDi9/kKk4hcvrSPjrbO0eRw MZVrQa3s7tUcYK5t4oPdiVJznFqabyZL/c1tukYRviQiBMHy64/CJaxvutIW96j9 3vIwy5a1utJp6XE4XvNC =sKq1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
