I wish to offer my sincere apologies for not specifying the details of my solution in my previous post. The problem turned out to be not in the actual Java code but in how I was using my tools. Adding a directory to the classpath in the Eclipse project settings didn't propagate to Tomcat in my context. What I did was to add the directory to the classpath to Tomcat's launch configuration under Eclipse. That solved it! If you you doubleclick on the Tomcat server under the Server tab (in the window that usually holds tabs like console, problems etc, I'm not sure what it's called), an "Overview" of settings should open. There's a link there "Open Launch Configuration" which opens a configuration dialog. The dialog has a tab called "classpath" and you can add your entry there, under "User Entries". Again, I apologise for not writing this the first time around and thanks to those who reminded me to do so. - Fencer

There are several jar-files in my WebContent->WEB-INF->lib folder, but if I put my XQuery file in there, getResourceAsStream() doesn't find it :( If I could make it work without adding a directory to classpath like I'm doing that would be even better! - Fencer

There are already several directories in your class path for a web app. Is your "XQuery file" a JAR? No? Then it doesn't go in the "lib/" directory. The root directory of your application ("application-name/") and the classes directory ("application-name/WEB-INF/classes/") are already in your path. Put your resource relative to one of those. -- Lew
