Hello

I'm trying to test some custom filters/layout with an existing application.
When I use them in a dummy test application launched from eclipse,
everything if fine, they are correctly loaded if I specify a "packages"
property in the configuration

However, when packaging the plugin classes in a jar file to run with the
real applications, they are not loaded, cf this log with status="trace"


I made another test: I removed the plugins source from my eclipse, and run
the dummy application that was working with the jar file in the classpath,
the plugins are not loaded too. I made sure that the jar is in the
classpath: the dummy application starts with a Class.forName() on one of
the plugin classes and it does succeed ...

Any idea ?
