*If* you are adding your own mailet or matcher, just put your jar in the
<james>/apps/james/SAR-INF/lib directory of your server, without any
change to james.sar. This (possible from james-2.2.0+) because adding
your own matcher/mailet is considered a kind of (sofisticated)
configuration setup.
If instead you are *extending/modifying James* (like doing your
variation of the JDBCMailRepository class), IMHO the best approach is -
as you said yourself - "to work from the source code and build James
from scratch for development".

Thanks Steve.
I added the jar to the existing james.sar file using winzip. My preference would be not to do this as I would prefer to be able to take a standard install and add to it.
I guess instead I'll need to work from the source code and build James from
scratch for development instead.
Cheers,
John

You should be able to get this to work by putting your classes into a jar file and adding this jar to the SAR-INF/lib folder within the james.sar file.

Subject: Writing a new mail repository
Hi,
I have just started using James and I have a bit of a newbie question.
I want to write variation to JDBCMailRepository class but I keep
getting classloader issues. If I have my new classes in a jar file and
put them in the ext directory and then configure the config.xml to use
them I get class not found errors on my class.
If I put my jar file in the lib directory I get class not found errors
for MailRepository. So it's finding my new class but not in the same
classloader as the classes in the james.jar.
Is there a way to do this or do I need to build James from scratch
rather than "plug-in" my new classes to a distribution?
thanks,
John
