That has been my experience when configuring the Realm from within the <Context>. IMO, the context should have its resources resolved using the WebappClassLoader for that context, but there is a bit of a chicken-in-an-egg situation with reading the context deployment descriptor which can configure the ClassLoaders. > I'm curious about how this is supposed to work. This is a situation not covered by the servlet spec, so "how it is supposed to work" is whatever the Tomcat devs decide, and can change over time. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlBprLYACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBUoACfd7MJv91JugFAXPbg405GgHAf oEQAoJjV1t4bRcCmj6wUzh2oJAvVZDtf =Mi5d -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
