[JBoss JIRA] Closed: (NETTY-53) ClassNotFoundException when an ObjectDecoder with no ClassLoader specified tries to decode an object.

Trustin Lee closed NETTY-53.
----------------------------

    Resolution: Done


Fixed.  Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader() is always called before calling Class.forName() if a user specified no or null ClassLoader.

> When no or null ClassLoader is specified for ObjectDecoder, the ObjectDecoder should use the current thread's ClassLoader to load a class.  The current implementation blindly passes null to Class.forName(), which raises ClassNotFoundException.
