Yeah, if you leave Tomcat to generate its own classpath you can switch
between Tomcat installations on the same machine just by switching
TOMCAT_HOME around.  I was asked to build an installer that included Tomcat
recently and this was quite handy, since I built the installer on the same
machine I was using for development; it was quite easy to switch back and
forth between the installed version and the development version.  Dealing
with IIS (not my idea) was a different story . . .

> Just on the side. I totally agree with Erik. Classpath should never be set
globally since it just tends to screw up deployment later on. (Especially in
distributed enviroments being developed on one machine only.)
> And it is not true that the classpath has to be set globally. Just look in
the tomcat.bat or startup.bat and add the classpath there.

TOMCAT_HOME. (Please correct me if I'm wrong)
