Jacopo Cappellato commented on OFBIZ-6268:
------------------------------------------

Thank you Adrian.
What I don't like about this new approach is that it adds to the 
"framework/start" module a dependency on the inner layout of the "base" 
component:
{code}
            
classPath.addComponent(ofbizHomeTmp.concat("framework/base/config"));
            classPath.addComponent(ofbizHomeTmp.concat("framework/base/dtd"));
            classPath.addFilesFromPath(new 
File(ofbizHomeTmp.concat("framework/base/lib")));
            classPath.addFilesFromPath(new 
File(ofbizHomeTmp.concat("framework/base/lib/commons")));
            
classPath.addComponent(ofbizHomeTmp.concat("framework/base/build/lib/ofbiz-base.jar"));
{code}
while with the current code the dependency is just on the "layout" of the OFBiz 
folder:
{code}
        collectClasspathEntries(new File(home, "framework"), classPath, 
libraryPath);
        collectClasspathEntries(new File(home, "applications"), classPath, 
libraryPath);
        collectClasspathEntries(new File(home, "specialpurpose"), classPath, 
libraryPath);
        collectClasspathEntries(new File(home, "hot-deploy"), classPath, 
libraryPath);
{code}

Moreover, does the new code introduce any changes to the ClassLoader tree? 
(i.e. a new ClassLoader in the parent-child path)
I am asking because it is difficult for me to figure out by reviewing the patch.
If it adds new levels, even if this is not a big deal, then we should decide if 
it is worth to improve startup performance and penalize runtime performance 
(both by tiny fractions).
