Jar up the common code into one or more libraries. Put them somewhere (possibly at the enterprise app level) and add each jar in each webapp's MANIFEST file.

WAS: RE: BOOBIES! I wanted to have multiple web applications defined, all using the same core Java code, but each having different JSP and tag file folders. I tried following the example in the Tomcat Wiki at http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/CreateVirtualHosts, but it assumes all the web apps have the same JSP and tag files, inside a WAR. I would like to package up all of the common code for all the sites in a WAR file, then point each separate web app to private JSP and tag file folders. What I was trying to determine is: 1. Is it even possible? 2. If so, how could it be done? As for the subject line, my previous email sat with the subject "Shared code but different pages on different virtual hosts?" for two weeks without a single response, and I'm still waiting so that my project can continue down it's path. No offense is meant, and it should be pretty obvious, I think, that I just wanted a little attention for my issue. Sorry for any offense it may have caused.

I believe the subject was posted under different subject heading with no response and he's trying to get people looking at it, which I'm sure he will now. That said, some proper netiquette is appreciated in forums. I believe that I'm doing something similar, but using a different approach. I too want to have some common resources that all webapps use. To do this I'm installing my own FileDirContext for web apps which I inject what we call aliases. IE: /basefiles = /home/tomcat/basefiles Thus when someone in the webapp makes a request for /basefiles/common.css it looks it up in /home/tomcat/basefiles, which is outside of any web app context. Is this what you want to do? Mike Wannamaker -----Original Message----- From: Mead, Jennifer L - VSCM [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: July 21, 2006 2:01 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: BOOBIES!

Jennifer -----Original Message----- From: Harris, Thomas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 21, 2006 10:59 AM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: BOOBIES! I have been trying to determine how to configure Tomcat 5.5.17 to have a shared appBase on multiple webapps, but have a different set of JSPs for each web app. I've followed the Wiki's CreateVirtualHosts page to configure multiple webapps that use exactly the same WAR file. But, I would like to share the Java, but supply a different docBase for each site. Is this possible? Reference: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/CreateVirtualHosts Thanks!
