I am getting the different output with HDK and RI with the following scenario
Step1: Compile TestInnerClass.java [1] by including junit.jar in the classpath. Step2: Through reflection call the innerclass TestInnerClass$ExceptingEntryPoint main method (refer [2]) without including the junit.jar in the classpath HDK: throws NoClassDefFoundError: junit/framework/TestCase RI: prints "I am printing from TestInnerClass$ExceptingEntryPoint" Any thougts on this. P.S: One of the ANT unit-testcase implements this scenario due to which 4 tests are failing. [1] TestInnerClass .java import junit.framework.TestCase; public class TestInnerClass extends TestCase{ public static class ExceptingEntryPoint { public static void main(String[] argv) { System.out.println("I am printing from TestInnerClass$ExceptingEntryPoint"); } } } [2] Testcase: ClassLoadTest.java import java.lang.reflect.Method; public class ClassLoadTest { public void callMain() throws Exception{ String classname = "TestInnerClass$ExceptingEntryPoint"; Class target = Class.forName(classname, true, this.getClass().getClassLoader()); Method main = target.getMethod("main", new Class[] {String[].class}); main.invoke(null, (Object[])new String[] {null}); } public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{ new ClassLoadTest().callMain(); } } Thanks and Regards, Mohan
