I figured this out, in case someone else needs this one day. In the remote
service, I did:
Context c = createPackageContext("com.my.package",
Context.CONTEXT_IGNORE_SECURITY | Context.CONTEXT_INCLUDE_CODE);
bundle.setClassLoader(c.getClassLoader());
However, what are the security implications of this (particularly the
CONTEXT_IGNORE_SECURITY flag)?
Thanks!
