I won't pretend I understand how all this works, especially wrt to subtleties between loading from clojure, auto-loading of AOT compiled gen-classes, etc., but what has worked great so far for clojure.osgi and indirectly for CCW in a complex classloader hell context (OSGi) was the following: * set the context class loader via Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(loader) * rebind Compiler.LOADER with loader Note: I do not pretend this works in all situations, nor do I pretend that one of the two above is redundant, nor that there could be a simpler (cleaner !) solution. But better check the source by yourself : (we're using clojure.osgi version 1.2.10 for ccw, so check this tag to be certain we're talking about the same thing) : https://github.com/aav/clojure.osgi/blob/1.2.10/clojure.osgi/src/clojure/osgi/ClojureOSGi.java Cheers, -- Laurent -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
