--- Comment #6 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> --- Thanks for the test case. It makes debugging what is going on a lot easier. I think there is a bug here. Over time we have added various optimisations to the ImportHandler to address performance issues caused by the ambiguity introduced in EL 3.0. A good summary of those ambiguities and the associated performance issues can be found in https://tomcat.markmail.org/thread/pcxxg4ql6mxjwcmd and the links in the first email of that thread. One of those optimisations was to do a resource lookup before trying to load the class as this was considerably quicker for the "not a class" case and only marginally slower for the "is a class" case. It is this resource lookup that is failing due to a lack of read permission. Given that this test is there to optimise the "not a class" case, that the return value is thrown away and that the class loading happens a few lines later, I think your proposed patch is along the right lines. We've been moving towards removing anonymous classes so I am going to try a variation of your patch that uses an inner class. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
