             Summary: Data/Classpath URL Stream Handlers assume the Broker is loaded by the JVM's system classloader
                 Key: QPID-7598
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-7598
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker
            Reporter: Keith Wall
             Fix For: Future


The Java Broker implements two URL Stream Handlers:{{data:}} and {{classpath:}}.  It registers these with the JVM using the {{java.protocol.handler.pkgs}} system property.   Unfortunately, this technique only works if the Broker's JARs are loaded by the JVM's System classloader.  If the Broker is loaded by a child classloader (as might be the case if the Broker is embedded within a container, a maven plugin or testing framework) this technique fails. 

There seem to be a few (ugly) workaround for this problem documented on-line, but I have an evaluated merits.
