AntClassLoader really sucks. In XDoclet's xjavadoc module we're resolving types in java codes by doing a Class.forName in some stages and it's interesting to see that in most cases we're wasting 95% of time in AntClassLoader (in all those spaghetti messy checks). I know you can't change AntClassLoader radically in Ant1.x but at least spend some time optimizing it :-) Ara. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
