java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

java.lang.ClassNotFound



The DLL Hell of windows is MANIFEST.MF in java classloading. J2EE and application's only complicate matters further. Reloading classes dynamically requires classloader hierarchy further adding complexity. I have spent the last day going round and round with this stuff, converting a J2EE application's structure and build system from its existing incarnation to a more rationalized structure and a build system of ant tasks that simplifies things immensely. But just when I thought I was rounding the corner, cross referencing dependencies caused crumbling at the edges.

But its at least better than this cobble.
