An alternative to specifying the extra classpath during deployment would
be to specify it
in the webapp's sun-web.xml:
<sun-web-app>
<class-loader extra-class-path="WEB-INF/lib/extra/extra.jar"/>
</sun-web-app>
but that also requires listing each of the extra JAR files (instead of
just the
directory containing them).
