[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBAS-4927) Code added in 4.2.1 breaks web app that works in 4.2.0

Francisco Reverbel commented on JBAS-4927:
------------------------------------------

This looks a client-side issue. Try adding just jboss-iiop-client.jar to the client classpath (server/default/lib, if the client is running within default JBossAS config).

In order to make the dynamic generation of IIOP stubs simpler and more efficient, the generated stubs are *not* JBoss independent: they are derived from org.jboss.proxy.ejb.DynamicIIOPStub and use various classes from the package org.jboss.iiop.rmi.marshal. Hence the need for jboss-iiop-client.jar at the client side.

> Code was added in version 4.2.1 to the WebAppClassLoader class to override the findClass() operation.
> I have a web app that uses the sun rmi-iiop to connect to remote applications (which worked fine before). The stubs for my code are located in my deployed jars in the war.
> At line 98 in WebAppClassLoader.java, a call is made to attempt to run the iiopstubcompiler. It gets a ClassDefNotFound on the IIOPStubCompiler class, which then bypasses the catch block (which is looking for a RuntimeException). It looks like the intent was to run the super.findClass() if there is any trouble, but that doesn't happen due to the catch block being bypassed.
> If I change the code to catch Throwable or add a catch for ClassDefNotFound which runs super.findClass(), the app works as it did before.
