Could a <Resource> be used to map a virtual directory for the work directory? For example, trick Tomcat into using a "directory" within a JAR file or something as the "work" directory? Obviously, it will fail if Tomcat tries to write a temporary file, but that's kind of the point. George, you can always use the "document-root" (to use httpd's parlance) as the work directory, since it also must exist. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - https://www.enigmail.net/ iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEMmKgYcQvxMe7tcJcHPApP6U8pFgFAly9w1sACgkQHPApP6U8 pFiGPBAAujnlk8kSIZQUUe5ydJZuU4TMvzn0NFFcE3zetldHklQ3HNSgCAff5s7D oNbHHiGKRiS1fDaa4hUSePdsZZcnwGlfzEZdIbn05NFZLl7OCASiH1F4FS+hW0cf vBGfVGOdPIDHGaIFGeTDi28ADi2TP1RoHLdCNHJK1Ul/bbesiw9vKvPkyRfY6g7X +OPzWY/p7Ke0Q3JvGQISVplRkKZ6HtYtCIo3k0nMciE2RNZUIsIC3451rQD4vjxo Bn+ZZZkP56Ff0Xzxc18Fx9Yut+4RV+SpVbESHc+q45YtlGIrYQi/QMvTJ3ZpGN4u 6me+t5CZvqnxgwQOSKFzXtijaPdS9awtlqmhSLKT5hSc/kGpkhjKs2Nie6faZcs2 7WPMzJu6JqRW93j0NtE1V7cPmvozKlaKCjMRaRB8XCv25vpePGZ9YKwTq5C7GNqX ++h1f/s2BWsbFshlfF6KRCov5nNi/eHNKHSMUz4JBKzc+mzabTCqE7TGWIbxeJtA mJ8UUzyMzaigTY0THduRrwQbTECbTBwGpbXf2m4fP0XF6rKNRepzG4j8XD/bTFQP fp3oEYUAOYms+TGd/fYlvTNUQHm3S2PpM4Y868KfHm3kCPREdLXnqfjTWtBj+WdF DSkMgoHj09hJ69njFvuThqQ99wJbtIhu8wg6oNf5TvD7ghXdOKk= =Gx4M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
