No, it follows the style of the other server.xml declarations instead:
* The element name is capitalized.
* The "className" attribute is used to identify which class should be
instantiated.
* Any other attribute names are matched up against your property setters
and they are called (with type conversions for Java native types).
So, if your listener has a "setDebug(int debug)" method, you can set the
listener and configure the debug level like this:
<Connector ...>
...
<Listener className="my.package.class" debug="0"/>
...
</Connector>
An arbitrary number of properties can be set in this way.

Yes, server/lib is the right place if your class is in a JAR
file. Unpacked classes can be placed in server/classes (which is not
created by default, but is added to the class loader if found).
