Hi, have seen some reported problems for support of soap 2.2 for jdk 1.1.8 and earlier on both 9X and red hat. This appears to be as a result of a call to getClassLoader() which returns a null to represent the system class loader in earlier jdks as allowed by the specs.
to circumvent that I've added a line to check for this and try the system class loader via the static method in the ClassLoader class. I also added a check for null at the end where the setServletClassLoaderInContext() method is called. i've included a diff below for the changes - it's a hack, I am not sure the significance of not storing a class loader: 118,123d117 < //getClassLoader() may return null to represent the root or system class loader (noticeably on 1.1.8 and earlier) < if(servletClassLoader == null) { < // get system class loader - this method is allowed to return null too (see added check below) < servletClassLoader = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader(); < } < 180,181c174 < if(servletClassLoader != null) { < ServerHTTPUtils.setServletClassLoaderIntoContext(servletContext, --- > ServerHTTPUtils.setServletClassLoaderIntoContext(servletContext, 183d175 < }
