So if I wanted hibernate-3.0.14.jar to be visible to all
webapps I could stick in in CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib and set
shared.loader =
${catalina.home}/shared/lib/hibernate-3.0.14.jar and now it's
visible to all webapps, but not to Tomcat?
Also correct, but I don't know why you'd go to that trouble. Adding
classloaders does not improve performance, nor does preventing the Tomcat
kernel from seeing certain jars buy you anything.
I've been sitting here trying to come up with some hypothetical reasons that
might make sense, but after writing them out, they all seem pointless, so good
point! At least I know what's in catalina.properties now :-).
Actually one case I think is somewhat valid from an administration point of view is if you are RedBoss and you want to say to users "Place all shared/provided webapp libraries in /var/lib/tomcat" and have the corresponding Tomcat package pre-configured for this.
Thanks again,
- Ole
