I was thinking about this and I believe the reason that the full resolved
class path is not considered is because it would include entries from both
the JRE classpath container and the Web-App Libraries classpath container.
Is this correct? If it is, it would seem easier to just exclude those
classpath containers and then resolve the rest?
Thanks,
James

James E. Ervin, IV
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a
hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build
a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate,
act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a
computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
Specialization is for insects.
