Re: [Jpwsafe-devel] Classloader barfing on JpwPreferenceInitializer

[Tristan N. <co...@me...>]

Yes, I have all those jars in my class path.

What's weird is I don't get a normal stacktrace - the app just dies.
When I run it through the debugger, I find this:

Launcher$AppClassLoader(ClassLoader).loadClass(String, boolean) line:  
356	
Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(String, boolean) line: 280	
Launcher$AppClassLoader(ClassLoader).loadClass(String) line: 251	
Launcher$AppClassLoader(ClassLoader).loadClassInternal(String) line:  
374	
UserPreferences.loadPreferences() line: 91	
UserPreferences.<init>() line: 54	
UserPreferences.getInstance() line: 206	
PasswordSafeJFace.createMenuManager() line: 466	
PasswordSafeJFace(ApplicationWindow).addMenuBar() line: 246	
PasswordSafeJFace.<init>() line: 187	
PasswordSafeJFace.main(String[]) line: 623	

So it occurs when instantiating the JpwPreferenceInitializer in  
serPreferences.loadPreferences().
In the JDK source I have, it looks like the error is happening in the  
finally clause of the loadClass method.
There's a lot of Mac-specific stuff in there - so this is likely to be  
a Mac-only bug. The weird thing is that according to the source I'm  
looking at, this code should only be run for a small set of org.apache  
classes. It looks like this was a very specific fix for certain code -  
so I don't even know why we're hitting this. The argument to this  
method is definitely not an org.apache class.

Anyway - whatever is triggering this first appears in rev. 312 - so  
its not affecting the 0.7 code. I'll step through the changes in that  
rev. and see if I can isolate this.
