Description Shaddy Baddah 2007-10-10 16:44:26 UTC
In my opinion, setenv.sh/setenv.bat  seems a better candidate for CATALINA_BASE.
And I'm canvassing for opinions that agree or disagree.

In terms of rationale, I think those that understand the concept of having a
separate CATALINA_BASE/CATALINA_HOME will see the obvious rationale there.
setenv.sh/setenv.bat is the container of settings for a Tomcat instance, so you
should be able to have different settings for different Tomcat instances
deployed against one installed version of Tomcat.

I will attach a patch that implements this.

I like it!

Many thanks for the patch. I have applied it to trunk and proposed it for back
port to 5.5.x and 6.0.x

Fixed in 5.5.x and will be included in 5.5.26 onwards.
