FWIW, I would generalize the ClassLoader a bit so that it treats the JARs uniformly. For instance, always search for classes in the JARs in order alphabetically by JAR file name (but not path). That way, you can name your JARs like "1_log4j.jar" and "2_other_log4j.jar" or whatever. It wasn't entirely clear how you implemented your ClassLoader but it sounded like it might be /very/ specific to your exact requirements, today. Doing something like alphabetical resolution by file name might be re-usable in some other insane environment. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkrPqN8ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBLeQCffqFtEir44arwerzOUf36Vyo+ 9EoAn0hw6cytspxELVKAkEe/idvuGpq6 =LvcO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
