[infinispan-dev] Classloading issue with multiple modules in AS7
When starting an EmbeddedCacheManager from a different module deployed
in the AS, I get this stacktrace:
Caused by: org.hibernate.search.SearchException: Unable to initialize

The ComponentMetadataRepo is unable to load
"infinispan-core-component-metadata.dat", which contains the
critically-important information for wiring together the internal
components of Infinispan core.
Now I think this is quite silly as locating this resource is trivial:
it's in the same jar as all the infinispan core classes:
infinispan-core-[version].jar so patching this looks like trivial:
it's using the ClassLoader configured as defaultClassLoader in
org.infinispan.factories.AbstractComponentRegistry, but really it
should just use something like
AbstractComponentRegistry.class.getClassLoader() ?
Things get a bit more tricky with extension modules, and a lot of
magic is being wrapped around this defaultClassLoader which goes
beyond my understanding so I would be glad to leave this issue to some
core Infinispan developer more familiar with the intentions here.
