Re: NoSuchMethodError loading class in webapp from common class loader
I was able to verify that you are correct the JVM treats those classes as different which is why I was getting NoSuchMethodError. After experimenting some more this method seems to be the wrong approach. Do you know of any better approaches on how to add runtime dependencies to a webapp?

Re: NoSuchMethodError loading class in webapp from common class loader
Sorry I tried to leave on what I thought were unnecessary details. You are correct my constructor has arguments. One of the arguments comes from another dependency jar that exists in both the webapp and tomcat/lib so I think your guess (c) could be right. I guess the solution would be to move the dependency out of the webapp and into tomcat/lib.

Your description does not have enough details, nor source code, nor stacktaces, and with such I would guess that you have the following: a) Your constructor has some arguments b) The classes mentioned as argument types in that method can be loaded both from common class loader and from webapp classloader. (If they cannot be loaded from the former, you are also in trouble). c) Classes loaded from different classloaders are considered different by JVM (even if they have the same name and bytecode),. You are asking for a method specifying its arguments by using classes loaded by webapp classloader and they do not match the ones loaded by common classloader Just a guess.
