Karl Wright commented on TIKA-2693:
-----------------------------------
I am being clobbered with Tika/POI issues at the moment so I'm going to
recommend holding off shipping MCF 2.11 until we either have a 1.19 Tika, or we
know we're not going to get it soon. Hopefully that helps. ;-)
> Tika 1.17 uses the wrong classloader for reflection
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-2693
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2693
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: general
> Affects Versions: 1.17
> Reporter: Karl Wright
> Priority: Major
>
> I don't know whether this was addressed in 1.18, but Tika seemingly uses the
> wrong classloader when loading some classes by reflection.
> In ManifoldCF, there's a two-tiered classloader hierarchy. Tika runs in the
> higher class level. Its expectation is that classes that are loaded via
> reflection use the classloader associated with the class that is resolving
> the reflection, NOT the thread classloader. That's standard Java practice.
> But apparently there's a place where Tika doesn't do it that way:
> {code}
