We probably have a lot of places where we resolve filenames but
I'm guessing we don't have a single utility method to do the

Wrong :)
probably just new File(new File(file).getCanonicalPath()) or
something like that wherever

For example:

For instance, most UNIX filesystems have symlinks and
case-sensitive filesystems, and these checks would not be
necessary. Plus, users in those environments are quite used to
using symlinks in place of real files.
Using Unix and Linux for a LONG time, love symlinks as they work across file

I'm curious as to why you are using hard links instead of

Really? Tomcat 6.0 replaced the server/lib/, shared/lib/, and
common/lib/ directories in favor of a single, unified lib/ directory.
That doesn't strike you as an important change?
Again, you are right. Single is much better, but I still only needed one link
for the SQL jar and moving that to lib
Humble apologies, I have not seen changes to the lib structures for any of the

Thanks for the answer. I would have moved the jaybird

It does matter, because the directory layouts have changed in the
various major versions.
