Philip Zampino updated KNOX-3047:
---------------------------------
Description:
Some deployments of Knox would benefit from the ability to extend the classpath
to include JAR file locations outside the gateway home directory.
*Proposal*
A well-known path, or set of paths, should be added to the configured
classpath, which are located outside the installation of Knox itself, where
users could place 3rd-party JARs such that they would be included on the server
classpath.
_/usr/share/java_ can be one such location.

Some deployments of Knox would benefit from the ability to extend the classpath
to include JAR file locations outside the gateway home directory.
*Proposal*
A property name knox.auth.jars.path should be configurable in gateway-site.xml,
allowing for a comma-separated list of arbitrary JAR paths.

These paths should be included on the server classpath.
