Never; again, this is a service, so there are no environment variables. > Since you target Java 5 and above maybe you could start using > the star syntax in the classpath to shorten things a bit further Please give a specific example of how this might be useful. > Is there still a dependency on tools.jar, e.g., for servlets? There has never been such a dependency. Several years ago, there was a requirement to have tools.jar accessible in order to compile JSPs, but that is long gone. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
