Most webapps do this, no? > These jars are for plugins for extension supported by by my webapp. > Is there a better way to do this? Does one of the existing classloader mechanisms not provide a means to achieve this? I'm thinking of the shared loader (see catalina.properties) or the VirtualWebappLoader, (see docs). > Is there any way to start the static app before other webapps? Where does the static app fit into the above? Are you selecting & loading the JARs from an HTTP connection? You *could* take advantage of the multithreading support for deploying applications, & just wait until the static app is available - but I'd try & avoid this approach if possible.
