Hi Max,
Weijun Wang said the following on 08/06/11 00:19:
I have two files: A.java and B.java
/*
* @test
* @build A B
* @run main A
*/
public class A {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Class.forName("B", true,
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader());
}
}
public class B {
}
Now jtreg A.java shows:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: B
How can I get B visible in A's ContextClassLoader?
It isn't A's context class loader it is the current threads. If the
above isn't working then either:
a) A is not being loaded by the application (aka system) classloader
(jtreg is using a custom loader); or
b) jtreg has explicitly changed the current thread's context classloader
You would need to investigate what A.class.getClassLoader() reports, and
what Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader() reports.
Don't tell me to change to Class.forName("B"), that line is copied from
JDK that is called by a real test.
Or, the JDK code itself is problematic and it should fallback to another
ClassLoader?
It's unclear why the code/test needs to use the context classloader here
(or why/how it knows the context loader is the correct loader).
Cheers,
David
Thanks
Max
