This is what I do (using the latest Tomcat release which handles the CLASSPATH
correctly even on NT)
I just place my servlet code into a jar, put the jar on the classpath, call it
with its full name, and ALL is well without any XML file changes. I know this is
NOT the correct way to do it but IT IS SIMPLE and might even eliminate Tomcat
traffic on this forum! :-) This works correctly on both NT and Linux.
