Geronimo java.endorsed.dirs support is non-functional
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GERONIMO-2440
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-2440
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: startup/shutdown
    Affects Versions: 1.2
            Reporter: Rick McGuire
             Fix For: 1.2


Geronimo attempts to load classes using the java.endorsed.dirs mechanism to 
override classes already resident in the JVM.  This is done by having 
org.apache.geronimo.system.main.Daemon concatenate the 
%GERONIMO_HOME%\lib\endorsed directory to the java.endorsed.dirs system 
property.  Unfortunately, the java.endorsed.dirs system property is processed 
during JVM startup, so the value must be set as a -D command line option when 
the JVM is launched.  As a result, the classes placed in lib/endorsed dir are 
not recognized as endorsed classes and the native JVM classes are still getting 
picked up.
