Bill Lucy commented on MYFACES-4284:
------------------------------------
[~tandraschko] we don't appear to need this fix in 3.x. This logic was
refactored, and now the safe invocation of
_ClassUtils.simpleClassForName(className, false)_ is used - see
_FacesServletMappingUtils.isFacesServlet()._
> ClassNotFoundException during initialization

> Key: MYFACES-4284
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-4284
> Project: MyFaces Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2.12, 2.3.3
> Reporter: Bill Lucy
> Assignee: Bill Lucy
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.2.13, 2.3.4
>
> Time Spent: 40m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> A ClassNotFoundException can occur during initialization when a servlet
> mapping is defined which cannot be loaded by MyFaces. We should update
> WebXml.getFacesServletMappings() to not throw an exception when it can't load
> a class.

> This is related to the fix made in MYFACES-3629
> Any servlet defined in the web.xml that can't be loaded by at the time of JSF
> initialization will cause this problem. As an example, this definition will
> cause MyFaces initialization to fail:
> _<servlet>_
> _<servlet-name>unloadable</servlet-name>_
> _<servlet-class>does.not.Exist</servlet-class>_
> _<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>_
> _</servlet>_
