Tomcat 4.1 resouces & classpaths

[Pat McGroin <ba...@go.com>]

Hello.

I am trying to reference a few JAR files and a property file from an out-of-process Tomcat application.
The Tomcat 4.1 documentation says that unpacked classes and resources will be loaded out of the WEB-INF/classes directory and packed resources are loaded out of WEB-INF/lib of your web applcation.
See the documentation here:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/class-loader-howto.html

I put my property file in WEB-INF/classes of my application but it is never loaded.  This is the code I'm using to try to find it:

InputStream is = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/" + fileName);
theProperties.load(is);

Am I misunderstanding how resources are found in Tomcat 4.1?

Thanks in advance for any help!
