Yaa you are right in assuming that Tomcat refrences all the WEB-INF\lib dorectories. You don't need to add those in classpath explicitly.

However I'm getting increasingly confused about "correct" usage of the classpath. I was running under the assumption that Tomcat would be referencing all the web-inf\lib directories automatically. I'd heard that it's not recomended to be adding every single reference into the system classpath.. apart from the fact that it would grow huge there's the portability issue. Have you any thoughts in this area? cheers Tref > -----Original Message----- > From: Adrian Janssen [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday,15 May 2002 5:03 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Accessing self created packages in Tomcat3.3 > > if your problems are at compile time then I suspect that it has very > little > to do with TOMCAT, are you sure that the > TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\ourTest\WEB-INF\classes\com\ue\ueUtils directory is in > your classpath? try something like: > > javac -classpath > %classpath%;TOMCAT_HOME\webapps\ourTest\WEB-INF\classes\com\ue\ueUtils > someBean.java > > does that help? > > Cheers > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Gare, Tref [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: 15 May 2002 07:11 > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Re: Accessing self created packages in Tomcat3.3 > > > > Thanks for the response. > > > > Unfortunately that's exactly what we've been trying and to date no > > success. > > Also Tomcat 3.3 doesn't have a TOMCAT_HOME\classes directory in it's > > native > > state.
