Question

i have added some new functionality to an existing tag, and modified the corresponding tld and placed it at WEB-INF/ . but some how tomcat isn’t picking this modified .tld

am i doing something wrong here where do i need to put the .tld file to override the existing one present in the jar?
following is the exception
