Classloader-problem with xerces not seeing webapp-classes

           Summary: Classloader-problem with xerces not seeing webapp-
                    classes
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.1.18
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Unknown
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Suran@gmx.net


This is similar to bug  16221 but way more serious.
We have a web-application that uses Xerces2 and gives
it a class-name to instanciate for the document-class.
However since tomcat uses Xerces2 now (4.0.3 with xerces1
works fine) the endorsed xerces2 is used. But this xerces2
does not see the classes of the servlet's war-file or the
libraries therein that it was called from and thus does
not function correctly aynmore.
Due to bug 16221 we cannot use the xerces2 (that is _not_
part of j2se or the servlet-api) inside our war-file as
stated in the documentation.
It does work if our application-classes are copied to the endored-
directory and we could not make xerces2 not globaly visible by
having it in the server/lib -directory.

As of last (long) weekend, it is included in Tomcat 5.  But before people
get confused, it isn't a true rd.forward.  It works more like an
Apache/httpd rewrite.

When is still an open question (patches are always welcome :).  The
configuration option is 'processWelcomeResources' on the Connector element
('true' means forward, 'false' is the old TC 4.x behavior:  The current
default is 'true').

My limited understanding of this is that, as a JCP member, Apache can't have
a 'release' version before the Servlet-2.4 & JSP-2.0 Specs go final (but
IANAL).  This means that anyone that actually knows the answer is under an
NDA, so they can't tell you.

Tomcat Standalone - 302 Redirect Issue

Posted by neal <ne...@yahoo.com>.

Can someone please confirm the option to switch the welcome file behavior
from a redirection to a rd.forward was included in the mapper for Tomcat
5.0?  I have heard both that it was and that it wasn't.

I guess I have the following questions still:

1. Is this functionality going to be included in Tomcat 5?
2. Where/when can I find documentation on how to configure this new feature?
3. When will a release candidate of Tomcat5 be available?  I understand
there are not set dates for these sorts of things but a general ballpark
idea would help me to plan.

Thanks.
Neal
