Ralph Goers commented on VFS-228:
---------------------------------
I'm not crazy about the provided patch as it just seems to revert a previous
fix. I'm not sure why using the current Class's ClassLoader vs the
ThreadContext's ClassLoader causes the problem but I can easily understand that
either one might be correct or incorrect depending on the circumstances.
I'd like to know more details on why this fails in an OSGi environment.

> IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-0ubuntu6) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12)
> OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0_0-b12, mixed mode, sharing)

> The latest version from trunk fails to work with Apache Ant resulting in this
> error:
> Could not load VFS configuration from
> "jar:file:/media/Fort/per/program/backup/lib/commons-vfs-2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar!/org/apache/commons/vfs/impl/providers.xml".
> which was caused by
> java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
> org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.local.DefaultLocalFileProvider
> The cause seems to be a class loader issued introduced in rev 537717.
> Reverting that change:
> cd core
> svn diff -c r537717
> src/main/java/org/apache/commons/vfs/impl/StandardFileSystemManager.java |
> patch -R
> mvn clean install
> [copy commons-vfs-2.0-SNAPSHOT to my test's lib dir]
> ant -f test.xml test
> Makes my example ant file work again (worked with the 1.0 release).
> The 537717 revision was intended to fix
> VFS-136: Don't force-set the classloader - Thanks to Adam Heath for the patch
> So it might be a bit controversial to reverse that change.
> Attaching patch fixing the issue and my example ant file.
