How to load Jar class dynamically in Wildfly 15

465 views Asked by At

*Getting following exception when trying to load an external Sample .jar at runtime using : Class clazz = Class.forName(jarClass);.

Exception: Module "deployment .test.war" from Service Module Loader] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.abc.xyz.def.abc.Sample from [Module "deployment.test.war" from Service Module Loader]

*Have then modified the class loader from "this.getClass().getClassLoader()" to "ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader()" but then it started throwing following exception :

deployment.test.war//org.abc.pqr.tasks.JavaDataPlayTask$1.run(JavaDataPlayTask.java:450) - Execution of Java Data Play package failed: org/abc/pqr/tasks/DataPlay java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/abc/pqr/tasks/DataPlay

*The piece of code that performs dynamic class loading is inside a Main.jar *Class inside the Sample.jar implements an interface "DataPlay" that is available in Main.jar

Have tried approaches defined in the following link but none of them worked for me:

*Is the approach mentioned in the following link is suitable? https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/jboss_enterprise_application_platform/6/html/migration_guide/find_the_jboss_module_dependency1

*Is Java Platform Module System, the only solution to this problem?
