Hi, We are trying to use Chain Of Responsibility pattern in the server side. We have defined our chain+commands in an xml and are parsing it via ConfigParser.
But we face a problem with getting Catalog via CatalogFactoryBase.getInstance().getCatalog(catalogName) call.Looks like it has got some ClassLoader specific loading. So if we have initialized in some web context, the Catalog is not present in other context - different ClassLoader. Is there anyway we can remove this ClassLoader level dependency or is there any other way of loading the chain configuration for server side usage? /** * <p>Return the singleton {@link CatalogFactory} instance * for the relevant <code>ClassLoader</code>. For applications * that use a thread context class loader (such as web applications * running inside a servet container), this will return a separate * instance for each application, even if this class is loaded from * a shared parent class loader.</p> * * @return the per-application singleton instance of {@link CatalogFactory} */ public static CatalogFactory getInstance() { CatalogFactory factory = null; ClassLoader cl = getClassLoader(); synchronized (factories) { factory = (CatalogFactory) factories.get(cl); if (factory == null) { factory = new CatalogFactoryBase(); factories.put(cl, factory); } } return factory; } Regards, Jagan
