+    It extends <code>WebappLoader</code> and supports the following
+    additional attributes</p>

+      <attribute name="virtualClasspath" required="false">
+        <p>Additional repositories to search for resources.
+        Multiple elements can be joined using <code>;</code>

+
+      <attribute name="searchVirtualFirst" required="false">
+        <p>Set to <code>true</code> if you want the virtual
+        class path to be searched before
