My web app works fine except for some Xalan transform issues (involving
extension fuctions). These dont work because in a typical deployment the
classes cant be found even though the jars live in the orion/lib or
myapplication/WEB-INF/lib directory.
I guess the extension functions of Xalan have their own class loaders which
seem to ignore the classloader(s) used by orion.
A solution was posted a while ago saying to put all the extension
classes/jars in the jre/lib/ext directory which does fix the problem.
However this isnt all that nice a solution for deployment. Id rather leave
the classes where they are and configure Orion accordingly.
Is there any way to start orion using the -jar orion.jar commandline but to
also maintain a classpath in the VM?
Has anyone else had this particular problem or a similar problem with other
3rd party software?
Any ideas?
