Tapestry may, in some cases, look for a page class in the wrong package
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: TAPESTRY-724
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-724
     Project: Tapestry
        Type: Bug
  Components: Framework  
    Versions: 4.0    
    Reporter: Geoff Longman
    Priority: Critical


I've been trying to come up with a patch but work has been getting crazy and I 
have been ill for days now.

A detailed description of the problem (and apossible solution) is to be found 
here:

http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-tapestry/GeoffLongmanSandbox

In a nutshell, if a user references a Tapestry page whose class must be found 
from a given list of packages it may be the case that way they have referenced 
(by name) may mislead the ComponentClassProvider to look in the wrong package. 
If that happens, the class is not found and (in most cases) BasePage is 
assigned as the page class. Often this will break the application if the page 
depends on a class other than BasePage. Depending on how the app is set up 
there could be 3 or more legal ways to reference a page by name (path parts) 
but only one way will result in the right page class being located.
