Excuse my ignorance, but why does the MLET stuff have its own class loader?
Can things be added to a running jboss server dynamically, by dropping jars
into the lib/ext area and configuring them through some interface?

What I propose to do is to change this - remove the Class-Path entry from
the jar/manifest and put "add all jars from the lib directory into the
classpath" code into the run.bat/run.sh scripts.

I know its not using the jar as perhaps it could be - but it allows us to
switch to alternate implementations more easily - especially the xml parser.



Thanks for the info,
Chris
