Jeremy Bauer commented on OPENJPA-1410:
---------------------------------------

I committed a change under rev 924395 that disables the dynamic enhancer if the 
OpenJPA instrumentation factory is not loaded by the system classloader.  In a 
multi-tier classloader environment (Tomcat, JEE app server, etc.)  the OpenJPA 
jar was being loaded by the container classloader and then loaded a second time 
into the system classloader (as an agent).  This lead to linkage issues since 
OpenJPA classes were loaded from multiple loaders and there ended up being a 
mix of classes in the execution path.  

After correcting this issue, the subclassing enhancer is working again (but 
that has its own set of deficiencies and is not recommended) - but agent-based 
enhancement (-javaagent:...) is not.  This is not a result of my change, there 
is some other issue.  I plan on looking into that next.

As of rev 924395 the openjpa.DynamicEnhancementAgent=false property should no 
longer be required, but build time enhancement of entities may still be 
necessary.

> It appears something was modified in OpenJPA 2.0 M3 from M2 that causes a
> LinkageError.
> In my current environment, I've tested both Glassfish and Tomcat using M2
> and M3. M2 runs without problems, but M3 throws a linkage error as follows:
> Caused by: java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: loader
> (instance of sun/misc/Launcher$AppClassLoader) previously initiated loading
> for a different type with name

> Seth's follow up[2]:
> After further review, using Glassfish 2.1.1 I received this error message in
> the server log:
> Caused by: java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when
> resolving method
> "org.apache.openjpa.persistence.validation.ValidationUtils.setupValidation(Lorg/apache/openjpa/conf/OpenJPAConfiguration;)Z"
> the class loader (instance of org/apache/catalina/loader/WebappClassLoader)
> of the current class,
> org/apache/openjpa/persistence/PersistenceProviderImpl, and the class loader
> (instance of sun/misc/Launcher$AppClassLoader) for resolved class,
> org/apache/openjpa/persistence/validation/ValidationUtils, have different
> Class objects for the type org/apache/openjpa/conf/OpenJPAConfiguration used
> in the signature
> So it appears to be the WebappClassLoader and the AppClassLoader are both
> loading the OpenJPAConfiguration from the same JAR file, causing the error
> when the class is trying to be resolved in this particular method.
