Now, if that doesn't work, it will try all the configured classloader repositories. E.g., if the Connector MBean is configured like | <mbean code="org.jboss.remoting.transport.Connector" | name="jboss.remoting:type=Connector,name=DefaultEjb3Connector,handler=ejb3"> | <depends>jboss.aop:service=AspectDeployer</depends> | <attribute name="Configuration"> | <config> | ... | | <repositories> | <repository>jboss.remoting:loader=titan1.ear</repository> | <repository>jboss.remoting:loader=titan2.ear</repository> | </repositories> | | ... | </config> | </attribute> | </mbean> | where, for example, jboss.remoting:loader=titan1.ear comes from | <jboss-app> | <loader-repository>jboss.remoting:loader=titan1.ear</loader-repository> | </jboss-app> | then MarshallerLoaderHandler will also try jboss.remoting:loader=titan1.ear and jboss.remoting:loader=titan2.ear. What I'd like to do is replace the "repositories" element with a list of classloaders. &quot;scott.stark(a)jboss.org&quot; wrote : | Yes, if we can have an application level bean register its class loader with the remoting layer to enable remote class loading, that is what we want. | I was thinking more in terms of declarative injection by way of *-beans.xml files. I'm not sure I see how an application level bean would get access to Remoting ... . Actually, that raises a question I've been meaning to figure out: What is the microcontainter/POJO analog to grabbing an MBeanServer and accessing an MBean by way of its object name? &quot;scott.stark(a)jboss.org&quot; wrote : | if we can have an application level bean register its class loader ... Registering a class loader with remoting should be a priviledged operation with a security check to ensure only application framework code can perform the registration. | I'm missing something. If "application framework code" means the Application Server, then these statements sound contradictory ... . Also, is there a way for a Connector method to check that it's being called by JBoss code? &quot;scott.stark(a)jboss.org&quot; wrote : | simply a feature, not a crippling issue in my view. | I won't let this hold up the 2.4.0.SP1 release unnecessarily.
