My webapps needs to access the javac compiler classes from tools.jar.
This appears to work on dev environment on Windows, but it doesn't in a deployment environment: Solaris 9 JDK 1.5.0_06 The app hits a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.tools.javac.Main According to the documentation, tools.jar should always be in the class path: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/class-loader-howto.html Looking at the startup scripts (I think I saw it in the doumentation too somewhere) there is a 'javac' option (in catalina.sh), which appears to be in some state of disrepair. At least the order of arguments passed from startup.sh does not match how catalina.sh looks at the args, nor does catalina.sh actually consume the 'javac', or evaluate it as a valid command. I guess I'm confused at this stage as to what to believe and how to proceed.
