classloading isolation
pedrosalazar Aug 26, 2004 11:46 AMGreetings,
I'm trying to isolate my web app as described in http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ClassLoadingConfiguration.
The classloader's SourceCode is a good way to verify it. But another good test to verify it is using log4j inside my web application file (WEB-INF/lib/log4j.jar and WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml). Depending of the classloader, the global configuration or the local configuration is used, and we can see how it's working.
If I set in $jboss_home/server/all/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml the following attributes to false:
<attribute name="Java2ClassLoadingCompliance">false</attribute> <attribute name="UseJBossWebLoader">false</attribute>
I works just fine, just I expect (isolation is OK).
However, I would like to let them to true by default, and to set it only the applications I require to be independent using the following syntax:
<!-- for EAR --> <jboss-app> <loader-repository>teste:loader=v1.war <loader-repository-config> java2ParentDelegation=false </loader-repository-config> </loader-repository> </jboss-app> <!-- for WAR --> <jboss-web> <class-loading java2ClassLoadingCompliance="false"> <loader-repository> teste:loader=v1.war <loader-repository-config>java2ParentDelegation=false</loader-repository-config> </loader-repository> </class-loading> </jboss-web>
The isolation isn't achieved. I mean, log4j is loaded by global jboss classloader (log4j-boot.jar) and consequently, the logger configuration used is the jboss log4j.
However, I can see that a domain "teste" is created for (teste:loader=v1.war).
It appears that only the configuration defined in jboss web sar ($jboss_home/server/all/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml ) is valid and the jboss descriptors in EAR or WAR are ignored.
What is the behavior of the classloading in jboss? Can't I use the jboss descriptors to overried the jboss web SAR?
I'm using jboss 3.2.5.
