Ah, magic. Lots of hand waving, followed gasps and applause :-)
Guys, thanks for the great info - this has all been really helpful. However, I
do have one question regarding the loading of the tag descriptors.
When I first started getting struts working in my environment, I deployed the
application with the struts jar files in the lib directory, and I was able to
use the taglibs without making any changes to web.xml to create a
uri-to-location mapping. (I take it the struts code looks for these tlds
automatically upon startup, yes?)
However, when I moved the struts jars into their own 'app', I was no longer
able to do this. Placing a mapping in web.xml didn't help, and the only thing
I could do was place the tlds in the WEB-INF directory in the web app. The
strange this was that I was able to load the tlds via the class loader,
although I didn't try it through the context class loader.
Is this an example of the issues I may have to deal with by trying to share the
struts libraries?
Cheers!
-klm.
