Hmm..you're quite right. The problem is not "getContextClassLoader", but there *is* a problem with AccessController.
I've checked the svn/cvs history, and the AccessController stuff was added by Richard Sitze in r138923 on 2002-10-18. Presumably that was the date at which JCL no longer worked on java1.1. Given that there have been no complaints about that, should we assume that JCL for java-1.1 is not in great demand, and explicitly support only 1.3 or later? I see no reason to support 1.2, as it is well out-of-date; 1.1 has *some* justification as many Win9x systems shipped with this jvm version and still are in use (see the user request which started this discussion). ALternatively, we can simply test for 1.1 before attempting to use the AccessController stuff... Cheers, Simon On Wed, 2005-04-13 at 22:08 -0700, Brian Stansberry wrote: > No joy.
