[jbossws-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBWS-1556) @WebWservice does not work with class isolation

@WebWservice does not work with class isolation ------------------------------------------------ Key: JBWS-1556 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBWS-1556 Project: JBoss Web Services Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: jbossws Reporter: Thomas Diesler Assigned To: Thomas Diesler Fix For: jbossws-2.0.0 It seems that Web Services do not work when the EAR that contains the @WebService class has an isolated classloader. Here is my take on what happens: You deploy the ear and JBoss creates a war, that contains a web.xml, that points to the org.jboss.ws.server.ServiceEndpointServlet. You can send a request to the web service bean no problem, but any objects that get returned from it will throw a NoClassDefFoundError because this ServiceEndpointServlet is deployed outside of the EAR and, since it has an isolated classloader, can't reference the returned class. My application works absolutely fine when I turn off all isolation of the classloader. I don't think this can be fixed. Any ideas?
