RE: Re: [cobalt-developers] Java - Installing jdk 1.4

Ya, i looked into changing the tomcat classpath, but you need to set it on the command line or something and i don't really want to mess with the cobalt scripts.  

How could i place a symbolic link in the classpath?

Travis,
	You can place them were you like and either add them to the classpath, or 
place a symbolic link in a classpath. Either should work the same. 
Although with if you modify the classpath, you may need to modify the 
security manager as well.

Otherwise you should be all set.

I've placed all these in the tomcat home directory under the classes path so all instances can use this.  How would i go about placing those packages on the home partition yet making them globally accessible?
