i am not sure if the SimpleClassLoader can load from jars, but if it can it could work, the classloader is the object that actually gets classes from disk to the jvm, so if the SimpleClassLoader can load the classes from a jar, then it should work.
please tell me if you can find a Classloader that can load from jars, i would be thankful! mvh karl -----Original Message----- From: Martin Kavalar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 20. oktober 2001 03:11 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Reloading Cocoon2 / Custom Generator I have a jar with all the classes my generator employs in it.
