Improve performance of startup scanning ---------------------------------------
Key: SHALE-448 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/SHALE-448 Project: Shale Issue Type: Improvement Components: Tiger Affects Versions: 1.0.4, 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT Reporter: Craig McClanahan Priority: Minor At startup time, the Tiger extensions currently scan classes in JAR files to analyze their annotations. To reduce overhead, two heuristics (only scan JARs that have a META-INF/faces-config.xml, and/or limit the package names that should be scanned) are applied to reduce the number of classes actually scanned. It turns out that there is a variant of Class.forName(): public Class<?> forName(String name, boolean initialize, ClassLoader loader) throws ClassNotFoundException that can load the metadata about a class without running the static initializers yet. It should be possible to use this variant to further reduce the startup overhead. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
