catalina-ant.jar newbie

[micael <ca...@harbornet.com>]

I am a pretty new newbie at the ant game.  I want to put the struts-el into 
TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/raven/.  I am using Tomcat 4.1 and Struts 1.0.2.  I 
tried to build the struts-el outside tomcat, but it needs the TaskDeploy in 
the catalina-ant.jar.  Can someone give me a quick pointer?

If you're talking about the Struts-EL taglib from David Karr, I must say 
you're making it harder than it need be made :-)

Here's what I did in the build.properties file:

    - declared eddie.lib:  eddie.lib=/path/to/my/webapp/WEB-INF/lib
    - replaced the beginning of (nearly) all property declarations David 
had with ${eddie.lib} so I had things like ${eddie.lib}/this-archive.jar
    - had to rename one of the JARs it was looking for (don't remember 
which).  I just changed the name here in build.properties.
    - commented out the stuff to run the tests on Tomcat 4

I *think* that's all I did.  From there, once the JAR was built, I just 
copied the JAR file to my lib directory and the TLDs to my /WEB-INF/tld 
directory (I know, I know - everyone else keeps them in /WEB-INF/, but I 
don't like cluttered directories).

... oh ... and I added a declaration for the taglib in my web.xml ;-)  I 
totally forgot about that part.
