Remy Maucherat commented on JBAS-5022:
--------------------------------------

Actually, the patch seems related to the RMI problem. I don't know if it's a good fix, however.

The main problem with fixing this directly in the classloader is that Jasper (and possibly other web applications using the URL classloader for the same reason) will be broken if running with the Ant compiler. This doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

> The WebAppClassLoader used by web applications to scope classes does not override
> getURLs() to return new URL[0]
> This means that if a webapp makes an RMI request using a class from inside the web app,
> all the WEB-INF/lib and WEB-INF/classes urls are sent across the wire as class annotations.
