I'm losing my mind here. I finally went full standard to see if the changes
in tomcat 7 would allow me to avoid custom class loaders and contexts, but
ran into a catch-22 issue.
I was getting:
java.lang.ClassCastException:
com.sun.xml.ws.transport.http.servlet.WSServletContainerInitializer cannot
be cast to javax.servlet.ServletContainerInitializer

org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.startInternal(StandardContext.java:

So I tracked down where the WSServletContainerInitializer was coming from
and removed the jar file. Now I get:
SEVERE: Error configuring application listener of class

and what's in the context is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context path="/idwm" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/idwm" >
<Resources
className="org.apache.naming.resources.VirtualDirContext"
extraResourcePaths="/idwm/*/=/usr/us/idwm/plugins/*/"/>
<Loader
className="org.apache.catalina.loader.VirtualWebappLoader"
virtualClasspath="/usr/us/idwm/plugins/*/WEB-INF/classes;
/usr/us/idwm/plugins/*/WEB-INF/lib/*.jar;
/usr/us/idwm/plugins/*/;"
/>
</Context>
So now what? I'm using the classes provided by apache and I'm damned if I do
and damned if I don't. Is there even a solution to this?
