Hello, I am trying to configure Tomcat in a way that it makes SCI scan only in jars I explicitly specify to. I followed instructions from https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/config/jar-scan-filter.htm, in both Tomcat 8 and 9, but with no success. I posted a question on stackoverflow that explains more in detail what I did: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62602550/how-to-specify-which-classes-and-jars-gets-scanned-for-servlet-annotations-in-to
And I also found other unanswered questions pointing to the same problem, here is one example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52876216/tomcat-too-slow-scanning-for-annotations . The thing is that it is looking like an error to me because logs tells that scanning is done as configured — if I add a jar for scanning in JarScanFilter, the log show it is scanned, if I remove it, the log stop reporting it's scanning — but after that, no matter what configuration I made with JarScanFilter, the WebappServiceLoader loads servlet annotated classes, such as @WebListener. Any leads? Ideas? Anyone can confirm if that is an error or if I am using the functionality wrongly or if I understand it wrongly. Regards, Vitor
