Zone and Room class loader problem

[grhwood]

I have ZoneExtension class and RoomExtension class inside the same ext.jar. The ZoneExtension class is config to a zone extension by using admin tool. The RoomExtension class is dynamically create at runtime using SFSApi#createRoom.

The problem is when i handle a event for example USER_JOIN_ROOM at zone level and use this :

RoomExtension roomExt = (RoomExtension )room.getExtension();

ClassCastException is throwed. When i trace it: RoomExtension.class.
getClassLoader() and room.getExtension().getClass().getClassLoader() are 2 difference class loaders.

Thank you.

Your extension jar needs to sit in __lib__ so that the class loader can get the exact same class. This is not possible if the extension is loaded by multiple class loaders (one for the zone, one for the room)
