Has anyone tried lime on j2sdk1.4?
It seems there is a compatibility issue. The one I found is that the classloader seemed not able to find local agent class files. You may try to launch the InteractiveAgent in the lime example directory to see the case.
Attached below is a running trace on my computer.
Any comments on fix?
Thanks,

On what platform do you get the error? I used to experience some problems (not necessarily this one) with the 1.4beta under Windoze, but they appeared to be fixed under the final release.
I was using Java 1.4 on my PC and laptop when testing LimeLite and found compatibility issues with Java version 1.3 on Tom's laptop running MacOS X. When the Mac attempted to read an object from an ObjectInputStream it would sometimes throw an InvalidClassException and other times an IOException.
While this does not directly relate to your problem, I just thought it worth pointing out. I ended up downgraded both PCs back to version 1.3.1_3 for the sake of compatiblity with version 1.3 on OSX. If only they would come out with version 1.4 for OSX....
With regards to your problem, have you tried adding a -classpath "." as an argument to java? I have not had problems loading agents in Lime using Java version 1.4 on a single PC running Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
