Craig Russell commented on JSPWIKI-465:
---------------------------------------
It might be good to enumerate all the places where the package name is
"published". There is the Java package name that affects the directory
structure of the project, but also the Maven group id and possible artifact id
if we ever publish the jar files in a Maven repo.
So to be clear, the proposal is that the project will continue to be called
jspwiki but the java package and artifact names will be org.apache.wiki?
> JSP classloading does not work because of package name collision
> org.apache.jsp <=> org.apache.jspwiki

> Key: JSPWIKI-465
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-465
> Project: JSPWiki
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Servlet Container/Java compatibility
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Environment: JSPWiki 3.0.0-svn-41
> Reporter: Harry Metske
> Assignee: Harry Metske
> Priority: Blocker
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> JSPWiki is an incubating project in ASF, one of the required steps here is to
> move the java package naming from com.ecyrd.jspwiki to org.apache.jspwiki.
> After moving several classes to this new package we are seeing
> NoClassDeffoundErrors when classes are imported from JSP's
> "Normal" servlets/classes work fine.
> After digging for a couple of days we found that the problem is caused by a
> bug in the JasperLoader classloader:
> http://svn.eu.apache.org/viewvc/tomcat/jasper/tc6.0.x/src/share/org/apache/jasper/servlet/JasperLoader.java?view=markup
> The following code snippet shows the failure :
> {noformat}
> if( !name.startsWith(Constants.JSP_PACKAGE_NAME) ) {
> // Class is not in org.apache.jsp, therefore, have our
> // parent load it
> clazz = parent.loadClass(name);
> if( resolve )
> resolveClass(clazz);
> return clazz;
> }
> {noformat}
> The constant Constants.JSP_PACKAGE_NAME is loaded as follows:
> {noformat}
> /**
> * The default package name for compiled jsp pages.
> */
> public static final String JSP_PACKAGE_NAME =
> System.getProperty("org.apache.jasper.Constants.JSP_PACKAGE_NAME",
> "org.apache.jsp");
> {noformat}
> Note the missing trailing dot !
> So there is a workaround by specifying the Java System Property
> org.apache.jasper.Constants.TAG_FILE_PACKAGE_NAME=org.apache.somethingelse
> However, this workaround is only available since revision 441109 of Tomcat 6.
