[jira] [Commented] (CONFIGURATION-511) ConfigurationUtils cannot locate classpath file when current Thread is RMI

["Oliver Heger (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-511?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13480312#comment-13480312 ] 

Oliver Heger commented on CONFIGURATION-511:
--------------------------------------------

I will have to look into the code. Maybe the class loader of {{ConfigurationUtils}} can be used as fallback if the TCCL fails.

>             Project: Commons Configuration
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.6, 1.8, 1.9
>            Reporter: Lorenz Schumann
>
> I noticed the problem when a registered MBean method is invoked over JMX (=RMI) and it calls ConfigurationUtils.locate("some.properties").
> The classloader is not able to find the resource then.
> A possible fix would be to change
> ClassLoader loader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
> to
> ClassLoader loader = ConfigurationUtils.class.getClassLoader();
> in method locateFromClasspath. But i am not sure what other Effects that would have since I have no insight into commons-configuration.
> Tested with 1.6, 1.8, 1.9.
