Re: Bug 16580; compiling xsp with classpath

[Christopher Oliver]

Yes, we should report this bug to tomcat-dev. It seems to be difficult to debug tomcat. I tried running tomcat/cocoon under a debugger ("catalina.bat jpda run") and the jvm crashed when I attached the debugger. Then I went through the trouble of setting up the classpath and sourcepath and launched catalina from the debugger, but it took about 10 minutes before Cocoon servlet even executed. Anyway the jvm executed so slowly in debug mode I finally just gave up. Maybe I need a better debugger(?)

Regards,

Chris

A possible explanation of this behaviour is a bug in Catalina's WebappClassLoader. A quick look at it shows that the policy for delegating calls to the parent classloader seems to be different for resources and classes. Hence the solution of moving Xalan to tomcat/commons/endorsed which unify the source for both resources and classes.

We should dig in WebappClassLoader, and if this reveals to be a bug, send it to Tomcat-dev.
