(Known) Problems with WebappClassLoader

["Eriksson, Michael" <Mi...@bauer-partner.com>]

Hi all,

I have come across two problems with the
o.a.c.loader.WebappClassLoader (TC 4.03) that are
currently major obstacles for me:

1) Sealed jars are not handled correctly. Cf.
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8611.

Is there any chance of the fix being ported to 4.0x?
(I am not likely to be able to move to 4.1x for quite some
time. Under no circumstances before the official release.)

2) Class.getSigners () returns null instead of the
signers.  This is probably
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7578.

I have verified that this is a problem with
WebappClassLoader by removing all overridden methods of
URLClassLoader and adding the jars from WEB-INF/lib with
super.addURL in a constructor. This crippled version loads
the signers correctly.

Any fix at all? (The bug-report from 2002-03-28 has had no
response so far.)

Regards,


Michael Eriksson

I'm inclined to port the latest CL changes to 4.0.x now, but it will be at
the expense of an addtional TC 4.0.4 beta.

I'd like this bug to be fixed.
I don't know why it doesn't work, and I didn't try to fix it yet. If you
have some time, maybe you can look into it ?
