Re: [Ikvm-developers] Dynamic loading woes (again)

[Michael K. <mi...@sa...>]

OK, thanks. I suspect that people who are calling out to Java from
XQuery/XSLT when running on .NET are only doing so because they're running
stylesheets that contain calls to system classes like System.getProperty()
or Date.new(), so I'll probably just leave it so the only classes available
are those in GNU classpath, and see if anyone complains.

Most of this seems to be working now, and it turns out the remaining
problems were my own internal ones rather than external class loading
issues.
