That is surprising to me. How does your code load the properties file?
I'll bet you aren't even using the ClassLoader (and you *should* be).

I don't believe it's true, so it shouldn't be in the documentation.

Nobody should be using CATALINA_BASE/bin for anything: it's for Tomcat's
bootstrap classes only.

I'm fairly sure that simply dropping a file in there won't do anything
at all, unless you have modified Tomcat from its original configuration.

If you want something to be globally available, use CATALINA_BASE/lib or
configure a shared.loader in catalina.properties. Oh, and write your
code properly to load from the class path.
