- All Implemented Interfaces: 
- java.beans.PropertyChangeListener, java.util.EventListener, javax.management.MBeanRegistration, Lifecycle, Loader
- public class VirtualWebappLoader 
- extends WebappLoader
A WebappLoader that allows a customized classpath to be added
 through configuration in context xml. Any additional classpath entry will be
 added to the default webapp classpath, making easy to emulate a standard
 webapp without the need for assembly all the webapp dependencies as jars in
 WEB-INF/lib.
 
 <Context docBase="\webapps\mydocbase">
   <Loader className="org.apache.catalina.loader.VirtualWebappLoader"
              virtualClasspath="/dir/classes;/somedir/somejar.jar;/somedir/*.jar"/>
 </Context>
 
 The *.jar suffix can be used to include all JAR files in a
 certain directory. If a file or a directory does not exist, it will be
 skipped.
