How to retrieve the relative classpath for Web app from classloader?

[mshimpi]

Hi there,

I am trying to use Java compiler API with in Web application and it requires classpath information on the classloader which loaded all the JARs from WEB-INF/lib folder of web app.

JBoss 5.1.0 uses VFS internally and its classloader somehow does not extend URLClassloader.

Under these circumstances, how can I get Web Apps classloaders classpath info?

Is there anyway, to configure System Classloader to be used for Web App ?

Appreciate any help.

We have this code that can integrate with underlying VFS:

* http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/mc-int/trunk/

See its "servlet" module.

There is no explicit docs, but the code, imo, is simple enough to see what you need to use to get access to VFS / DeploymentUnit.

Or shoot any question here, for further help.
