Usually, you would have a single copy of the source of the commonly used classes/jars, and have your packaging/deployment mechanism place that copy in each webapp. (Disk is cheap.) This also reduces versioning dependencies, allowing you to upgrade the apps one at a time when changes are made to the commonly used classes/jars. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
