Hi Andrus,
I managed to hack a fix. In the Util class, the getJavaClass method
gets the class loader as:
<code>
ClassLoader classLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
if (classLoader == null) {
classLoader = Util.class.getClassLoader();
}
</code>
However (and I did verify this) the class loader is the one that
tomcat uses for the Axis2 servlet. Here's how Axis2 uses class loaders
Axis2 has the notion of service isolation where each service or module
gets its own class loader. Using this class loader you can access any
resource that you put into your service archive file.
[See http://docs.huihoo.com/apache/axis/axis2-1.0-docs/xdocs/faq.html#b1]
The fix was the following:
<code>
ClassLoader classLoader = null;
if (classLoader == null) {
classLoader = Util.class.getClassLoader();
}
</code>
this correctly gets the class loader that Axis2 assigned to the particular WS.
Best,
- Ajay
