I checked in the change to LoaderInterceptor11 to allow it to optionally use the SimpleClassLoader (which is mostly the code from AdaptiveClassLoader) even under Java2. It should show up in tonight's nightly.
To enable it, you set the use11Loader="true" attribute on the LoaderInterceptor11 element in server.xml and re-start Tomcat. Hopefully this will be more jar-friendly on reloads. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, January 05, 2002 6:47 PM Subject: Possible Explanation - Re: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 5684] - WEB-INF/lib jar file loading and operations problems. > Hi Bill, > > I downloaded the 3.3 source code and did some sniffing.
