Anyone know why : the limitation? Why aren't we passing the ClassLoader thats loading Solr : classes as the parent to the lib dir plugin classloader?
FWIW: We do. I'm not sure what exactly the problem might have been in this thread (class loaders are nightmares, and spring doesn't make life any easier unless *everything* involved is using spring) but SolrResourceLoader uses Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader() to set the parent class loader unless an explict parent class loader was specified. (the webapp loader is the parent for the solr shardLib loader, which is the parent for the individual core loaders) at least ... that's the way it use to work, and skimming the code it doesn't look like it's been broken (in an obvious way) -Hoss
