This one's pretty important to me: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-2495 Requiring and using a Java library that ends up using a Thread Context classloader doesn't work. Here's the problem in a nutshell: I get classnotfound errors when I try and use a Java library from a JRuby program when the library tries to dynamically create classes that are only defined by class resources accessible to the JRuby class loader (example: XMLDecoder). The issue is caused because the libraries use a thread context classloader which in the current implementation is only available to the ancestors of the JRuby class loader. Lots more detail in the Jira report. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
