[equinox-dev] Component Resolve Thread and the context classloader

["Michael Furtak" <mfurtak@xxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

 

I’m working on a system that makes heavy use of Declarative Services. In troubleshooting some classloading problems, we’ve noticed that the Component Resolve Thread (backed by the Executor class) sets the context classloader to be null.

 

This seems to cause problems with Swing and other systems that make use of the context classloader (Esper was the source of our problems).

 

Is there a reason that this is set as it is? If so, what might be a good work-around?

 

Thanks,

-Mike Furtak
