Greetings, I really like that Apache Tomcat provides a way to skip JAR files for scanning. I would like to see this become an optional property within the JAR file itself. Obviously, this means that the JAR would still have to be loaded up in order to discover the entry, but this would ease up fear of common named jars from being false positively excluded. Another situation is where many of my projects have full version numbers and I don't want to code those out fully in the catalina.properties.
I propose something like jar!/META-INF/org.apache.tomcat.util.scan.DefaultJarScanner with property skip=true which would let us include that meta information directly in the JAR itself. This might require some documentation as well to catalina.properties. What do you think? -Jesse -- There are 10 types of people in this world, those that can read binary and those that can not. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
