In the tomcat-7 geronimo/osgi integration we've run into a problem
when tomcat loads listener classes using Class.forName. Using the
InstanceManager to just create the objects works fine for us.
In geronimo at the moment the InstanceManager has access to both
application and system classes, so it can load just about anything
that is supplied as a listener class. If listeners are supposed to
only be system classes, perhaps adding another method to
InstanceManager to create system objects would be appropriate.
If changing this is unacceptable for some reason we do have a couple
of other solutions available such as overriding the method or adding
the geronimo listener classes in a fragment bundle, but I think using
the InstanceManager would be a more elegant solution.
See https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48414 (patch
included) and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4992
Many thanks!
