This is rather a disclaimer ;-) I really did not test for potential security threats when using this feature, I don't know what happens if the URL contains sequences like ../../... Nor did I do performance tests. The primary goal was to fix the "serve modules without publishing" feature of eclipse which used to work with tc6 but was broken with tc7. > > Could this functionnality be backported to Tomcat 6 or a patch could be > provided ?

If there's really some demand, I could have a look at it. > > Thank you very much for pointing this bugzilla ticket ;-) > you're welcome.
