Kathy Chan commented on AXIS-2146: ---------------------------------- Hi, More and more user of the Web Services wizard in WTP 1.0 are running into this problem: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/activation/DataSource when the server (e.g. Geronimo 1.0 sever) they are targetting when creating Web services contains activation.jar in the server's path. Do you have any outlook on which release this problem will be addressed? > Different class loading used in attachment type mapping causing > NoClassDefFoundError > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: AXIS-2146 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS-2146 > Project: Apache Axis > Type: Bug > Components: Serialization/Deserialization > Versions: 1.2.1 > Environment: Windows 2000 > Reporter: Kathy Chan > > Driver: Axis 1.2.1 > The problem is that when the Eclipse WTP Web services wizard invokes the > Java2WSDLAxisAnt task, the > task itself will construct an AntClassLoader around the classpath that the WS > wizard passes into the task. > When creating Web service using Axis 1.2.1 runtime on a Tomcat 4.1 server, > the classpath contains activation.jar and mail.jar. > After the AntClassLoader is constructed, Axis will CACHE this classloader in > a > class call ClassUtils. Later on, when the TypeMappingRegistry is initialized, > the TypeMappingRegistry will determine whether type mapping for attachment is > needed. The way this is determined is by calling: > ClassUtils.forName("javax.activiation.DataHandler"); > Of course, when creating a Web service on Axis using Tomcat 4.1, > this returns true because ClassUtils uses the CACHED AntClassLoader, > which has activation.jar and mail.jar on its classpath. So the > TypeMappingRegistry will go ahead and initialize the type mapping for > attachment. However, in the attachment type mapping's initialization method, > it > does a: > Class.forName("javax.activiation.DataHandler"); > instead of a: > ClassUtils.forName("javax.activiation.DataHandler"); > Since Class.forName("...") will go to the Eclipse class loader, which does > not > have activation.jar and mail.jar on its classpath. A NoClassDefFoundError is > being thrown. > This problem only starts happening with Axis 1.2.1. The same scenario works > in Axis 1.1 and Axis 1.0. > This problem does not occur when using Tomcat 5.0 since mail.jar and > activation.jar is not in the classpath > passed to Java2WSDLAxisAnt task. >

(even though > they are in the Tomcat 4.1 runtime library) when calling setClasspath for > Java2WSDLAxisAnt task > so that Axis determines that isAttachmentEnabled is false and thus not do > further attachment > type mapping processing. > We were trying to see if there's a way to manually set "isAttachmentEnable" > to be false but could not found one. > It would be helpful if an API exist for the user to optionally disable > attachment processing rather than having the Axis > code "detects" it. > Please let me know If you need any more information isolating the problem. -- This message is
