Hello all,

We created a WebApplication in WSAD V4.0.3 as follows:
- create webapp
- import html-files
- import javascripts, images, theme,...
- import servlets
- import jt400.jar + clipper.jar to '.../lib' folder    (where clipper.jar
is a lib with own classes)
We can run the application in the WSAD build-in test server.

Problem: When we change one of our own classes, we have to rebuild
clipper.jar AND import this file again in our WebApp.  It's obvious that
this jar-file needs to be rebuild but isn't it possible to avoid the
import-task into each web-app where it is used?

I tried to remove the clipper.jar from the '.../lib' folder and replacing
it with a 'CLASS VARIABLE' (which points to the jar-file).  I added the
CLASSVARIABLE to the classpath of the 'build-in WebServer' too.  I have no
errors in the application (all classes seems to be found) but when I start
the application in the build-in webserver, it goes wrong.   Classes aren't
found anymore.

This is a console output:

As one can see, clipper jar is added to the Classpath of the webserver but
still, the classes aren't found.

Is it mandatory to add these file to the '.../lib' folder of the
WebApplication?

Any tips on how to configure this are welcome!
