If [all of] you want to discuss simple stuff, so be it. But it's much more interesting when people ask interesting questions instead of things like "how do I install Java?", so I welcome questions whose answers result in people learning things they can't learn from copying an example from a tutorial. | In the standard configuration, the JCIFS filter comes as a jar, which | gets placed in the WEB-INF/lib sub-dir of the webapp. | If I need to "build it into" my own filter, how do I do that? You don't need to do anything special at all. The webapp's classloader will fetch the appropriate class from wherever it is stored -- whether it be in a JAR in your WEB-INF/lib directory or as a .class file in your WEB-INF/classes hierarchy. | Do I unpack the jar first when and where I compile my own filter, so | that the classes are available then ? Nope. You can just use the JAR file as a compile-time dependency for your filter (or the entire webapp if you prefer). | I compile my filter right now with a very basic method, using a | command-file (under Windows) like : | | echo on | set JAVA_HOME=c:\java1.5 | javac -classpath | %CLASSPATH%;C:\java1.5\lib\tools.jar;C:\java1.5\jre1.5\lib\jsse.jar;C:\Tomcat5\common\lib\servlet-api.jar;C:\Tomcat5\common\lib\commons-el.jar | %1 Time to move to ant, baby. Once you get over the fact that it's just /not/ 'make', you'll learn to love it. | Do I just add the jar in question to the classpath above ?
