This must be someOSGi issue. At least I know now where to start debugging.I'm debugging it at the moment.Yeah, yesterday I thought it was just a missing jar file. Today I took a closer look at at it...gcj should not distinguish between natively compiled code and bytecode. The fact that it makes a difference must be a bug.Sounds like it. Can I somehow help? I know this is a hard case and currently cant think of a simpler testcase.
OK, I've found it. The ClassNotFoundException is thrown from a security check
in libgcj. We are calling Method m1 from method m0, and m1's class loader is different from m0's class loader. We have to check that for every arg in m1, the actual type is the same in both m1.loader and m0.loader.The method in question is org.eclipse.core.runtime.Platform.getPlugin(String), which returns an instance of org.eclipse.core.runtime.Plugin. It gets this
by calling org.eclipse.core.internal.plugins.PluginDescriptor.getPlugin().
