JBoss AS7的classloader机制

术语

Deployment

部署在AS7中的ear、war等都被称作为deployment。

简介

JBoss AS7(以下简称AS7)的class loader机制与JBoss之前的版本有很大的不同。AS7的classloading是在JBoss Modules项目中实现的。与之前的扁平化的双亲委托机制不同,AS7的classloading是基于module的,一个module如果想要“看见”另一个module,必须要显式地定义依赖关系。部署在AS7中ear、war也被看作是module,如果ear或者war没有显式地定义对AS7自带的jar的依赖的话,那么是“看不见”容器的jar的。

deployment的module名称

  • war的module name为: deployment.myarchive.war
  • ear中的war的module name为: deployment.myear.ear.mywar.war

自动依赖

如果让ear必须显式地定义AS7每一个JEE规范的jar的依赖的话,显然是没有必要的,因此AS7在部署一个ear时,会自动为deployment添加上一些依赖,而不用ear手工指定。比如ear中包含persistence.xml,那么AS7会自动为其添加JPA module的依赖,再比如ear中包含@Stateless的ejb时,AS7会自动为其添加ejb module的依赖。

如果ear想exclude掉AS7启动添加的依赖,可以在META-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml中添加exclude。

class loading的顺序

在以往的JBoss版本中,当ear中包含了xx-version1.jar的同时,容器也存在xx-version2.jar的话,就会出问题,也就是不同版本的jar不能共存。为了解决这个问题,AS7中定义了class loading的顺序。

class loading的优先级从高到低:

  1. AS7自动添加的依赖
  2. jboss-deployment-structure.xml中定义的
  3. WEB-INF/classes 或者 WEB-INF/lib
  4. deployment之间的依赖,比如ear中的waru依赖ear中的ejb

war的class loading

由于一个war被当作是一个module,所以war中的WEB-INF/lib与WEB-INF/classes是平等的,两者中的class被同一个classloader加载

ear classloading

假设ear的结构是:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 
myapp.ear  |  |--- web.war  |  |--- ejb1.jar  |  |--- ejb2.jar

AS7默认行为是:

  • web.war能看见ejb1.jar与ejb2.jar
  • ejb1.jar与ejb2.jar能互相看见

如果standalone.xml中的ear-subdeployments-isolated设为了true,则web.war、ejb1.jar、ejb2.jar就互相看不见了。

1 2 3 
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:ee:1.0" >               <ear-subdeployments-isolated>false</ear-subdeployments-isolated> </subsystem>

global modules

可以在ee subsystem中设置所有deployment都依赖的module,例如:

1 2 3 4 5 
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:ee:1.0" >               <global-modules>     <module name="org.javassist" slot="main" />               </global-modules>  </subsystem>

jboss-deployment-structure.xml文件

jboss-deployment-structure.xml 是JBoss特有的一个文件,用于细粒度地控制class loading,应该放入META-INF文件夹中。jboss-deployment-structure.xml可以做到:

  • exclude掉AS7自动添加的依赖
  • 显式地添加对现有module的依赖
  • 定义额外的module
  • 改变EAR deployments isolated行为

示例如下:(详见xml schema)

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 
<jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.2">   <!-- Make sub deployments isolated by default, so they cannot see each others classes without a Class-Path entry -->   <ear-subdeployments-isolated>true</ear-subdeployments-isolated>   <!-- This corresponds to the top level deployment.

In this case it is the same as including the jar in the EAR's lib directory -->     <resources>       <resource-root path="my-library.jar" />     </resources>   </deployment>   <sub-deployment name="myapp.war">     <!-- This corresponds to the module for a web deployment -->     <!-- it can use all the same tags as the <deployment> entry above -->     <dependencies>       <!-- Adds a dependency on a ejb jar.
