Bitronix uses the Thread Context Class Loader in order to load the driver class, so there is no need for you to configure bitronix or spring-batch to directly import that package.
Instead you should make sure that these mysql packages are imported by the bundle that contains the spring context and I think that it should just work (I am not 100% sure that spring set the TCCL to the current bundle, but I think that springdm does that by default). -- *Ioannis Canellos* * FuseSource <http://fusesource.com> ** Blog: http://iocanel.blogspot.com ** Twitter: iocanel *
