I guess it is the WEB-INF/lib directory, but any other directory?
I believe it is WEB-INF/classes that is the "default" class path for the web app. Of course you could put the file anywhere and then write the path to the file as a context-wide parameter in your web.xml. The reason I didn't like this is I had to change it when we moved from dev to prod - and I always ended up forgetting. I later changed my ant build file so my prod war had the correct version, but finally I just preferred the simple solution of putting it under WEB-INF/classes..:) > Sebastian Regards, Geeta
