Can Struts applications share information and classes between classloaders in
the same VM?

That's primarily a container question.  If you use Tomcat, for example, any
classes in shared/lib or common/lib is indeed shared across webapps (including
things like static variables).

As for sharing struts.jar itself (and the associated commons libraries), the
short answer is that it *might* work for you.  The longer answer (for 1.1 at
least) is in the user guide:
