Re: [jboss-as7-dev] problem with the classloader, not able to load a JDBC driver

Hi I'm trying to finish https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1371 but I ran into a problem with the class loader. I need way to load the class for a specified JDBC driver, but I can't seem to figure out how to make it available on the classpath too my authentication service. I try to load the connection class like this, and testing it with the existing H2 JDBC driver: ClassLoader original = null; try { original = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); if (original != null) { Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(null); } Class.forName(this.driver).newInstance(); } finally { if (original != null) { Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(original); } } The user can setup a outbound connection to a database for authentication, by using the configuration below <security-realm name="ManagementRealm"> <authentication> <local default-user="$local"/> <database connection="db" plain-text="true"> <!-- simple-select-users table="users" username-field="user" password-field="password"/ --> <sql-select-users sql="select user,password from users where user = ?" /> </database> </authentication> </security-realm> <outbound-connections> <database> <connection driver="org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource" name="db" url="jdbc:h2:/tmp/test;DB_CLOSE_DELAY=-1" username="sa" password="" min-pool-size="10" max-pool-size="20" /> </database> </outbound-connections> Any suggestions how to solve this?
