NC commented on LBCLASSIC-263:
------------------------------

You're right, assuming a security manager would impose a performance penalty.

Altering PackagingDataCalculator as follows would avoid the penalty:

if(System.getSecurityManager() == null)
   lastExactClassLoader =callerClass.getClassLoader();
else
   lastExactClassLoader =Loader.getClassLoaderAsPrivileged(callerClass);

When not running under a security manager the ClassLoader is obtained in the 
usual manner, yet everything still works, out of the box, if a security manager 
is in place.

This provides the best of both worlds with only a simple check.  
System.getSecurityManager() is not expensive.

> PackagingDataCalculator invokes Class.getClassLoader().  This method throws a 
> SecurityException when running under a security manager and that manager 
> denies access to the ClassLoader.
> I'm submitting a PackagingDataCalculator patch which wraps the 
> getClassLoader() invocation in a doPrivileged block.  This allows these calls 
> to succeed when the getClassLoader RuntimePermission is granted to 
> logback-classic.
