Hi, I am using tomcat 8.0.28. I am using a custom valve which has a dependency for slf4j (slf4j jar in in tomcat/lib). I also has a set of webapps which uses different versions of slf4j (those dependencies are in the WEB-INF/lib of those webapps). Due to the different versions in tomcat/lib and webapps, I am getting errors such as NoSuchMethodError.
Is it possible to restrict some classes being loaded for webapps? I am trying to see whether it is possible to load the slf4j classes required for the webapps from the slf4j jar in WEB-INF/lib only and not from the jar in tomcat/lib. Or is there any other recommended way to address this kind of problems?
