That is not possible in Java (not only in Tomcat, but not possible in any java 
application). You must extract jar B from jar A and put both on the classpath.

But it would be a nice feature and you can probably vote for an issue about it 
in the bug database of Sun/Oracle.

Folks,


Firstly, apologies if this question is a no-brainer.


I have a war file containing a jar file (jar A) in the WEB-INF/lib directory. 
Jar A contains another another jar file (jar B).
The structure of Jar A is class files under com/... and jar B.


Classes inside jar B do not seem to be accessible to code in the application. Tomcat 
throws a "SEVERE: Servlet /ExpenSysWT threw load() exception 
javax.servlet.UnavailableException: ... "

How do I arrange it so that code in my application  can see classes in jar B?


TIA - Adam
