You can put in catalina.properties. There is entry with common.loader in
catalina.properties under conf folder. Please see below
# Note: Values are enclosed in double quotes ("...") in case either the
# ${catalina.base} path or the ${catalina.home} path contains a comma.
common.loader="${catalina.base}/lib","${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar","${catalina.home}/lib","${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar","${catalina.home}/db2/*.jar","${catalina.home}/mq/*.jar","${catalina.home}/wasejb/*.jar","${catalina.home}/conf","${catalina.home}/properties"
Hope this helps.
Ambica.

Many thanks Mark. I will give a retry it.
Is there a way to set all jars in folder (c:\poc\lib) to classpath on startup?

Don't mess with the classpath. You should (almost) never need to do that.
Put shared JARs in Tomcat's lib directory.
