Is it possible to share the jar? I'm not sure what could be wrong, but having the jar might make it easier to figure out.

I started with Daffodil 3.8.0 but just tried going to 3.9.0 in the hopes of 
getting more debug information, but nothing changed,

Another thing to check is the Daffodil version you're using. The layer API was 
overhauled in Daffodil 3.8.0, so if you're using a layer written for the new 
layer API (which the latest version of IPv4ChecksumLayer is) it won't be found 
by older versions of Daffodil. You'll either need a newer version of Daffodil 
or an older version of the layer.

Are you perhaps just missing the metadata to tell the Java SPI loader
that the class is to be dynamically loaded from your jar?

The jar must have a file:
META-INF/services/org.apache.daffodil.runtime1.layers.api.Layer

The name is the name of the dynamically loaded base class.

That file contains the name of the dynamic class such as:

com.owlcyberdefense.dfdl.IPv4ChecksumLayer

In the EthernetIP project, this META-INF lives under
src/main/resources where it gets packaged into the jar file.

     Here is what've done so far:

     1 - packaged the scala code for IPv4Checksum as a jar file named
     ipv4checksumlayer_2.12-1.0.jar.  Using this code just to see if I can get
     daffodil to see the class
     2 - Verified the jar file contains the class named IPv4ChecksumLayer.class 
in
     the path com\owlcyberdefense\dfdl\
     3 - set the DAFFODIL_CLASSPATH environment variable to the location of the 
jar
     file.
     4 - pasted the following lines into my schema file:

              xmlns:chksum="urn:com.owlcyberdefense.dfdl.IPv4Checksum"
        <xs:import namespace="urn:com.owlcyberdefense.dfdl.IPv4Checksum"
     schemaLocation="IPv4ChecksumLayer.dfdl.xsd"/>

              <sequence  >
                <xs:annotation>
                    <xs:appinfo source="http://www.ogf.org/dfdl/ <http://

                      <dfdl:newVariableInstance ref="chksum:IPv4Checksum"/>
                    </xs:appinfo>
                </xs:annotation>
                    <xs:sequence dfdl:ref="chksum:IPv4ChecksumLayer">
                      <xs:sequence>

                    </xs:sequence>
              </sequence>

     You need to build your layer into a .jar file and then put that on 
Daffodil's
     classpath.

     If you're use the Daffodil CLI, you can add jars to the CLI classpath by
     setting the DAFFODIL_CLASSPATH environment variable, for example:

         export DAFFODIL_CLASSPATH="/path/to/custom/checksum/layer.jar"
         daffodil parse -s schema.dfdl.xsd ...

     If instead you're running TDML tests using SBT, a common technique is to
     publish the layer jar to a local repository, then add it as a dependency to
     the schema project that uses it. For example, you could do this to publish
     locally:

         cd /layer-project
         sbt publishLocal

     And add this to your schema project build.sbt file:

         libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
           "org.example" % "layer-project" % "1.0.0"
         )

     And then just run "sbt test" from the schema project. SBT will find the
     locally published layer and automatically add it to the classpath when 
running
     tests.
