[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBEE-75) Provide JAXWS api that uses AS7 module classloading

[Alessio Soldano (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBEE-75?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12584071#comment-12584071 ] 

Alessio Soldano commented on JBEE-75:
-------------------------------------

I've provided a proposal of changes on branch https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/specs/branches/jboss-jaxws-api_2.2_spec-JBWS-3223
The changes on FactoryFinder imply using reflection for loading the org.jboss.ws.jaxws-client module (whenever AS7 module classes are available) and getting the module classloader to be used for retrieving the Provider class. The reason for going with the reflection approach is in keeping the API usable standalone / out of AS7, as well as for not adding a compile time dependency on JBoss Modules.

> Our version of JAXWS api uses the original mechanisms for detecting the javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider class to use and create a new instance of.
> On AS7 we need to hide our implementations from the client runtime classpath; as a result of that we can't "pollute" the thread context classloader with the jbossws / cxf / etc. impl jars, so the JAXWS api Provider impl detection (that is based upon service loader) won't work properly.
> Moreover, there's likely to be a requirement for supporting the option of users overriding the JAXWS provider impl to use in a given deployment.
> So, our jaxws api should be able (at least) to dynamically load the jbossws jaxws client implementation module (without affecting the TCCL) and use that for resolving the javax.xml.ws.spi.Provider to use.
