Hello, I have never crossed 'fatjar' so far... but I guess that it allows to pack together multiple jar's and use them in a style like war or ear by using a fatjar specific classloader.
I further guess that your problem occurs at unmarshalling? This lead to a question: How do you initialize and call the unmarshaller? Maybe - if you use it a little bit different - we can solve your problem. On the other hand - Castor provides a way to specify a domain classloader that should be used to load the class at unmarshalling - but I personally haven't used this feature until now. You could put the fatjar classload as domain classloader. Hope this helps Joachim 2009/4/3 darrickc <[email protected]>: > > We use fatjar to build an executable jar that contains multiple > projects/jars.
