Hello friends!

I'm didn't find the possibility to add shared jars onto tomcat server in tomcat's configuration dialogue. There is only one tab named "Classes" that contains only jars in {CAT_HOME}/lib directory.
It would be better to expand this dialogue window to support jars located {CAT_HOME}/shared and {CAT_HOME}/server folders (as they are defined in catalina.properties file). All jars placed in these directories should be visible in each project that uses this tomcat server as it is done with jars int {CAT_HOME}/lib directory.
Hope that this new features make usage of tomcat server more flexibly and simpler and make such wonderfull IDE as Netbeans rather more better.

with Best Regards,
Alexey Makhov.
