I would expect that other modular classloading environments besides WildFly may also need a fix. For a possible workaround (for proxies), if we were able to clone the needed Javassist runtime classes, into the application classloader and generate proxies that use the cloned copies, I think that could help. We would have to clone them into a private package name (e.g. something like org.hibernate.javassist.runtime.*). We would also have to generate the proxies using the cloned classes. There may be other ways to change Hibernate applications to not depend on the Javassist runtime classes. For example if we change the bytecode that we generate, to not reference the Javassist runtime classes, that also would address this. _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
