Description Petr Jiricka 2004-07-12 15:22:24 UTC 
Currently, the IDE puts monitor libraries
(httpmonitor and schema2beans) to
CATALINA_HOME/common/lib. This effectively
modified the Tomcat installation. 

A better way would be to put the monitor libraries
under CATALINA_BASE, so we only tweak the user
specific directory, not the common installation
directory. This can be done by:

1. Copying the libraries to CATALINA_BASE/common/lib
2. Modifying the common.loader property in
CATALINA_BASE/conf to include CATALINA_BASE/common/lib

Note that because of a bug in Tomcat, this
approach only works in the latest Tomcat codebase,
not in Tomcat 5.0.25.
