Regarding the new URL() problem some of you might have more experience than I do. I only know the problems on some platforms, and after looking at the URL class in detail, I really wonder whether that was me doing it wrong or a platform bug.
My understanding problem is mainly around the URLStreamHandler. There is a method where one can set a URLStreamHandlerFactory (once for JVM lifetime): URL#setURLStreamHandlerFactory(URLStreamHandlerFactory fac) Thus when a ClassLoader#getResources() returns an URL with "wsjar://" as protocol and it cannot be used for new URL(), then can I safely assume this is a problem in the container setup? This happens on Oracles own WebLogic... I have not yet tried the following way: String protocol = "wsjar"; URLStreamHandler getURLStreamHandler(protocol) and then use the following URL constructor: public URL(URL context, String spec, URLStreamHandler handler) Can anyone test if this works? Or does anyone know already? We might hack a small JSP page which scans for META-INF/MANIFEST.MF and reports errors with new URL(). That way we could spread the test onto various platforms.
