| General purpose wrapper for command line tools that should execute in an
environment with the common class loader environment set up by Catalina.
This should be executed from a command line script that conforms to
the following requirements:
- Passes the
catalina.home system property configured with
the pathname of the Tomcat installation directory.
- Sets the system classpath to include
bootstrap.jar and
$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar.
The command line to execute the tool looks like:
java -classpath $CLASSPATH org.apache.catalina.startup.Tool \
${options} ${classname} ${arguments}
with the following replacement contents:
- ${options} - Command line options for this Tool wrapper.
The following options are supported:
- -ant : Set the
ant.home system property
to corresponding to the value of catalina.home
(useful when your command line tool runs Ant).
- -common : Add
common/classes and
common/lib
- -debug : Enable debugging messages from this wrapper.
- -server : Add
server/classes and
server/lib to the class loader repositories.
- -shared : Add
shared/classes and
shared/lib to the class loader repositories.
- ${classname} - Fully qualified Java class name of the
application's main class.
- ${arguments} - Command line arguments to be passed to
the application's
main() method.
