Joshua Hyde created FLUME-2293:
----------------------------------
Summary: Isolate Flume agent plugins to their own classloader
Key: FLUME-2293
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2293
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Sinks+Sources
Reporter: Joshua Hyde
This is tangential to the FLUME-2286 issue I raised, but this would probably
negate it:
It'd be nice if Flume plugins had classloaders isolated from the {{lib/}}
directory of Flume (and the Flume agent itself was isolated from the plugins
directory). This would allow plugins to exercise a bit more freedom in their
dependency stack (such as using more recent versions of Guava) without
interfering with the ability of the Flume agent to run (and without
interference from the agent's dependencies).
