This is related to Bug 39194, where I have been referred to this list,
so it's not a user support question.
How can I configure access to tools.jar in Tomcat 5.5?
[ Assuming everyone agrees that I should be able to do that ]
At this point, we have
1) Tomcat 5.5 classloader doc claiming it is always there (not true)
2) The release notes stating tools.jar is not required, but can be
configured (but how?)
3) setclasspath.sh does not add it to the classpath
4) setclasspath.bat does add tools.jar to the classpath
[ This without checking for JRE/JDK ]
Honestly, I don't want to copy tools.jar around, nor do I want hack the
startup scripts.
A simple way to configure the system level classpath, consistent between
Unix and Windows would be appreciated.
For example, a simple user-controlled environment variable
CATALINA_CLASSPATH could be introduced to seed
the system classpath.
I would also further suggest that the configuration required to use
javac for JSP internal compilation be documented
(unless of course I just wasn't able to look in the right place) and
that the classloader documentation be corrected.
Thanks!
Martin
