[wildfly-dev] Fwd: Camel 2.14-SNAPSHOT / JMX / JAXB / Classloading

[Markus Eisele]

Hi all,

I've been playing around with latest Camel 2.14 which introduces a new
metrics-component. The information get exposed via JMX/XML.
They use JAXB and bootstrapping Camel in a war on latest WildFly 8.1
(I used this a base: https://github.com/myfear/CamelEE7).
If you use JConsole or hawtio+jolokia to access the relevant mbeans
you get the following exception:

NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class
com.sun.xml.bind.v2.model.impl.RuntimeBuiltinLeafInfoImpl

Root cause is this:

public static JAXBContext createJaxbContext() throws JAXBException {
        // must use classloader from CamelContext to have JAXB working
        return JAXBContext.newInstance(Constants.JAXB_CONTEXT_PACKAGES,
CamelContext.class.getClassLoader());
    }

(https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/camel-core/src/main/java/org/apache/camel/model/ModelHelper.java#L95)

Google lead me to some results about AS7 .. nothing worked so far. I tried:
1) MANIFEST.MF (expot services com.sun.xml.bind)
2) jboss-deployment-structure.xml <module name="com.sun.xml.bind"
services="export" />
3) packaging JAXB 2.2.6 in the war

WildFly is the only server with those issues. It works on plain
servlet containers like Tomcat and jetty.

Any hints highly appreciated

Thanks,
Markus
