Control the classpath ordering of jars in WEB-INF/lib on Tomcat 5?

Question

I have a legacy web app running in Tomcat 5.0.

This web app has two jars in WEB-INF/lib, let\'s say Foo-2.0.jar and Bar-2.0.jar

Answer 1

Strip Foo-1.0.jar out of Bar-2.0.jar. As it is, it's just trouble waiting to happen both for development(need to fudge the dev. environments) and for deployment.
