Hi and Happy New Year! I have a library that uses JDBC and is being used within a my web app. The library and JDBC driver jars are in the web app's WEB-INF/lib directory. The library installs a Java shutdown hook, which ultimately uses the JDBC driver to do some clean ups in the database. I'm getting a class not found error when trying to load the JDBC driver (in this case derby) in the hook. I suspect this is because the shutdown hook has been called with a class loader that does not have access to WEB-INF/lib.
Any thoughts or solutions? Thanks. David Wood Policy Technologies Group IBM TJ Watson Research Center daw...@us.ibm.com 914-784-5123 (office), 914-396-6515 (mobile)
