But this seems to rule out the JVM version, and pinpoint the change to have happened between 4.x and 5.0.x. -- Antti Rauramo Index Information Technologies Oy [EMAIL PROTECTED] +358-40-5190209 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Tomcat 5.5.9, endorsed jars and classloader
Hello all, I ran into problems with Tomcat 5.5.9. We have xercesImpl.jar in common/endorsed, and another jar (X-Hive's XML database's xhive.jar) in common/lib, that includes a class that is put in the xerces package (org.apache.xerces.dom) in order to access xerceses package protected class ObjectFactory. This works as long as the classloader is the same for both xerces and xhive. With older tomcats this has been works fine for years now, but with 5.5.9 an IllegalAccessException is thrown. I wrote a test case that seems to prove the case, or at least some difference. Basically there are two classes, testing.A and testing.B. A creates an instance of B and accesses a method that returns the instances classloader. When A is in common/lib/a.jar and B in common/lib/b.jar, both Tomcats displays the same classloaders for A and B. When A is in common/lib/a.jar and B in common/endorsed/b.jar, Tomcat 4.1.31 displays the same classloaders for both A and B, but Tomcat 5.5.9 displays a classloader for A but null for B. The server with Tomcat 4.1.31 runs Sun's JDK 1.5.0-b64, the one with Tomcat 5.5.9 runs Sun's JDK 1.5.0_04-b05. It is possible for me to upgrade the other if you think this may be an issue. The classloaders toString() output is actually different, come to think of it... The test files are at http://www.index.fi/indox/download/tomcat-classloader-test.tar so you can easily see for yourselves. -- Antti Rauramo Index Information Technologies Oy [EMAIL PROTECTED] +358-40-5190209 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi, I ran into problems with Tomcat 5.5.9.

This works as long as the classloader is the same for both xerces and xhive. It's still a hack ;) But I've done it myself in the past... With older tomcats this has been works fine for years now, but with 5.5.9 an IllegalAccessException is thrown. Which older Tomcats?
