diagram

+class loaders are not defined and the simplifed hierarchy shown above is used.
+This more complex hierarchy may be use by defining values for the

+and is completely invisible to web applications.</p>

+<p>The <strong>Shared</strong> class loader is visible to all web applications
+and may be used to shared code across all web applications. However, any
updates
+to this shared code will require a Tomcat restart.</p>
