Hi there, just a question as I'm not familiar with tomcat developement and maven integration; I think this is a developement topic to be discussed or at least to be thought of.
Is it possible to make tomcat use its own maven repository inside? This would mean if I generate a war file to be deployed, I don't package the needed libs referenced in maven, for tomcat should provide them. Then tomcat is to look into the war file, check the pom.xml and get the libs from maven repository itself to make sure that the web application can use the needed libs. There might be conflicts between two releases of a lib; this must be handled by such a tomcat maven plugin. As the war defines the release version in its maven config file, tomcat is to be able to use the specified one instead of only looking for the right package. The benefit would be smaller war files and only one lib for many projects. So here again my question: is it possible to do it this way or, if not, is this "feature" to be implemented (at least as a module for tomcat)?
