Jar files in the wrong directories.

           Summary: Jar files in the wrong directories.
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0 Final
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: pduffin@volantis.com


According to the class loader documentation the common/lib directory
should only contain the following jar files.
	jndi.jar
	naming.jar
	resources.jar
	servlet.jar

But when I build a standard Tomcat distribution I get the following.
	activation.jar
	crimson.jar		This should be in server/lib.
	jaxp.jar		This should be in server/lib.
	jdbc2_0-stdext.jar
	jndi.jar
	jta-spec1_0_1.jar
	ldap.jar
	mail.jar
	naming-common.jar	Assuming this is naming.jar
	naming-resources.jar	Assuming this is resources.jar
	servlet.jar
	tyrex-0.9.7.0.jar

The ones which cause me most problems are crimson.jar and jaxp.jar
as they conflict with the XML parser which I am trying to use and
the documentation clearly states that Tomcat 4 will not make an
XML parser visible to the web application. As this is something
that we have a lot of problems with it is very important to us.

Could you please move the above jar files into the correct place,
especially crimson.jar and jaxp.jar and update the documentation
to match what the distribution looks like.
