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 to the class loader repositories.
    • -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.
