Hi
I'm running Tomcat 4.0-b3 (standalone) and have some bit weired problem.
I know that it is possible to have eg.:
user1/WEB-INF
user2/WEB-INF
with apriopriate contexts:
<Context path="/userX"
docBase="/home/userX/tomcat"
debug="0"
reloadable="false">
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="framework_userX_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
</Context>
so both users can run/develop their application with no conflicts with
other. My idea is to run cocoon (1.8) with this environment. I have
(hopefully) solved classloader problem in cocoon, so even XSP is working
good for me while having all jars in user1/WEB-INF/lib. Now I'd like
user2 to have his own copy of all the jars in user2/WEB-INF/lib so he
can use modified wersion of his own jars or cocoon or any other classes.
AFAIK in Tomcat 4 it should be possible to allow simultanous work of
both users with their own versions of same classes.
However the results are that both users receive instances of classes
from one of them. Strange thing - I was testing Class objects - all
classes from my jars seems to be different for both users (eg testing
org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon.hashCode() or any other class from WEB-INF/lib)
but the code executed is the same for both users and for both staticaly
(servlet) and dynamicaly (xsp) loaded code.
Is it my misconfiguration, misunderstadnig or wrong behaviour of Tomcat
or Cocoon?
regards,
Szymon.
