You can supply a custom loader for a webapp to do this sort of thing:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/loader.html
Each webapp would require a context.xml to enable the custom loader.

Hi,
In resin, there is a possibility to configure it with following:
<web-app-default>
<!--
- Extension library for common jar files. The ext is safe
- even for non-classloader aware jars. The loaded classes
- will be loaded separately for each web-app, i.e. the class
- itself will be distinct.
-->
<class-loader>
<tree-loader path="${server.rootDirectory}/ext-webapp"/>
</class-loader>
When above configuration is used then each jar placed in ext-webapp
directory is loaded for each web-app X1, X2, ... just like it would be
placed in X1/WEB-INF/lib, X2/WEB-INF/lib, ...
Our customer asked us if it is possible in Tomcat.
According to
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/class-loader-howto.html
it is not possible, could you please confirm or give me any tip or
idea (I know that it is not correct approach - but it is customer
request - cannot do much about it ;)).
Maybe there is a way to extend Tomcat, maybe there is already a
solution of this problem?
Thanks,
Hamster
