Work Description: hanicz opened a new pull request, #925:
URL: https://github.com/apache/knox/pull/925
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
A new path /usr/share/java/*.jar is added on the classpath which is located
outside of the Knox installation folder. Users can place 3rd-party JARs in
/usr/share/java and those will be included on the classpath.
## How was this patch tested?
Changes were tested locally with test servers.
- Removed dependency from /dep/ folder so gateway fails to start.
- Placed missing dependency on the new path that is now included on the
classpath.
- Verified with memory dump that the necessary class is indeed loaded. Also
gateway successfully starts.

> 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.
