You're still going to run into problems when you try to use message resources (used prolifically for internal messages). Struts PropertyMessageResources calls getResourceAsStream() like this: is = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(name); ...and if you look at the Orion classloader, it does not implement getResourceAsStream(). This is what produces the "Cannot find message resources under org.apache.struts.action.MESSAGE" error. Look through the struts code for the source of that message; it has nothing to do with loading the dtds. The change described below is not necessary on Orion 1.4.5 or 1.4.7 (the only versions I have tested struts on). My current struts code has this.getClass().getResource(), and I see on the Orion console the correct Digester registration methods for the dtds. this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource() is returning the correct thing. ...browsing the (decompiled) source, it is amusing to note that the Orion ServletContext (com.evermind.server.http.HttpApplication) does implement getResourceAsStream(), but from the Struts PropertyMessageResources you do not have access to the servlet context so it's no use :-) Jeff >-----Original Message----- >From: Tim Endres [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Monday, March 05, 2001 11:50 AM >To: Orion-Interest >Subject: RE: classloader does not implement getResourceAsStream ? > > >> This line (about line 881 in my version): >> URL url = this.getClass().getResource(registrations[i+1]); >> >> Must be replaced by this: >> URL url = getServletContext().getResource(registrations[i+1]); > >Gee, that makes it look like a bug in Struts, as opposed to the >reported bug in Orion.
