I am trying to deploy a servlet in Tomcat 3.2 which uses a 
classloader. I am having problem with the classloader not finding the 
classes I have installed in the WEB-INF/lib directory.

 From other threads, I have discovered that this a configuration issue 
that has to do with the classloader hierarchy.

The solution ( described in a thread called "Re:Servlet Classloader" 
posted on Feb 2nd, 2001 ) describes the work around to the problem, 
which is unclear to me:

"place a copy of the dispatcher servlet into each apps 
WEB-INF/classes directory."

Can anyone tell me what this means? Does anyone know if this problem 
has been addressed in version 4.0 of Tomcat?

Thanks,

August Gresens
