[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-2695) Package APR native libraries correctly

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-2695?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.s... ] David Lloyd commented on AS7-2695: ---------------------------------- {quote} What if you have multiple modules using the same native component? Since the .os/.dll can be loaded only once per VM instance second invocation will always fail because JNI methods have already been bound to a different class loader. Next what if multiple native components have the same dependency. Static linkage of dependencies means that dependency fix would cause fixing all components using it. Anyhow, setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to a whatever location you have installed jboss-native/native before starting AS works equally well, so I see no reason why would this be something mandatory. Well, since everybody seems to be 'module' oriented why not creating a separate module for all native components a. Native component can be loaded only once per VM b. In that case they could be shared among different modules c. It would solve module redeployment cause they would be loaded by parent class loader. d. User could safely deploy his native component into that module and be sure it'll be loaded by a correct classloader {quote} What are you talking about? Modules can't be redeployed. Modules are loaded once per VM, that's it. Anyway, there are no parent class loaders in AS 7. None of this makes any sense... I think you must have some wrong assumption. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
