-----------------------------------------------
Donald,
Incase of patch with constructor change I ran into the error "Could not find a
valid constructor for GBean: TomcatWebApplicationContext". I ran into another
error once I got past this error by not changing the
TomcatWebApplicationContext constructor (see my previous comment). Will it be
possible for you to verify if GERONIMO-2964.patch breaks compatibility the way
you originally tested the patch posted by Aman?
Thank you,

> In Tomcat, a work directory can be specified for a web application in a
> WEB-INF/context.xml file. The GeronimoStandardContext does not permit the
> user to specify a work directory, and so the work directory defaults to
> var/catalina/work/<web-app>.
> I've submitted a patch file that modifies the geronimo-tomcat-1.2 schema to
> permit the user to optionally specify a work directory. This work directory
> is then propagated into the TomcatContext. I've tested this and it seems to
> work well.
