Yes, the app programmer needs to know about classloading. Bug.. feature.. bug... feature.. which'll it be? :-) On the one hand, having straight-forward classloading makes it easy to develop a web-app. On the other hand, having sandboxed classloading makes the web-app more self-contained and portable, since they don't rely on the surrounding server to provide any of its classes. > If you do that with Jetty in stand-alone, compliant > mode - you will simply find you are using the JAXP > that Jetty loaded to parse it's own XML configuration > files.
