http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38377 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-09-28 11:23 ------- Created an attachment (id=18930) --> (http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=18930&action=view) Patch for ClassLoader constructor I created a subclass of org..ClassLoader (lets call is SLoader) and tried to use it as the system class loader, but it gave me the same error as described in the initial comment. The class looks like this: public class SLoader extends ClassLoader{ [...] public SLoader(java.lang.ClassLoader deferTo) { super(deferTo, new String[]{ "java.", "javax.", "com.sun.", "sun."} ); } [...] } The JVM calls the above constructor when the class is passed with the -Djava.system.class.loader VM argument. This constructor then calls the constructor of the org..ClassLoader public class ClassLoader extends java.lang.ClassLoader { [...] public ClassLoader(java.lang.ClassLoader deferTo, String[] ignored_packages) { this(ignored_packages); this.repository = new ClassLoaderRepository(deferTo); } [...] } As you can see, there is no explicit call the any constructor of the java..ClassLoader class. This causes its default constructor to be invoked, which tries to resolv the parent class loader by calling java..ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader() which causes the loop in the class loader hierarchy. The appended patch fixes this by explicitly invoking the java.lang.ClassLoader.ClassLoader(ClassLoader parent) constructor which does not use the getSystemClassLoader() method.
