Resolution: Fixed > RequestUtils.applicationClass problem with ContextClassLoader > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: STR-985 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-985 > Project: Struts Action 1 > Type: Improvement > Components: Action > Versions: Nightly Build > Environment: Operating System: All > Platform: All > Reporter: Kjeld Froberg > Priority: Minor > > When the Struts example shipped is loaded, it initializes some resources as > static fields. > However when loading these classes, it uses the RequestUtils.applicationClass > method, and this method uses the ContextClassLoader to lookup the requested > class. > But because it is loading the classes in a static field, it cannot be sure > that > the ContextClassLoader has all classes from f.x. WEB-INF/lib loaded. > I'm using the Trifork app. server, and it gets a ClassNotFoundException from a > class contained in the struts.jar, but if i use Tomcat it seems to work fine, > that's because (I presume) the ContextClassLoader is null at the time. > "Snippet from RequestUtils" > // Look up the class loader to be used > ClassLoader classLoader = > Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); > if (classLoader == null) { > classLoader = RequestUtils.class.getClassLoader(); > } > A solution to the problem could be, > if you look at the forum for Hibernate it has a good description how to use > the > ContextClassLoader in a multiple classloader environment (an app.server f.x.) > http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=1720229 > please notify me if you want further information > Kjeld Froberg > Software Engineer > Trifork -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/struts/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
