Stefan Reich commented on WW-4055:
----------------------------------

@Martin and @Lukasz: I tried the workaround in the 2.x docs, but to no avail. The root cause was that only the empty WEB-INF/classes directory was returned by the Classloader. Not even a single jar or zip file. But again, my weblogic-application.xml configures all org.apache.* namespaces to be loaded from the war (it's complicated..), but I didn't confirm if that makes a difference. I'll attach whatever I have end of next week...

> The weblogic container versions 10, 11 and 12 has a peculiar way of deploying ear and war files. 
> It unpacks the ear and war file, and jars up the contents of WEB-INF classes into a new file: WEB-INF/lib/_wl_cls_gen.jar. After that, all content from WEB-INF/classes is deleted.
> The consequence is that the classloader will return a URL to the WEB-INF/classes directory when the plugin is searching for annotated classes, but it will be empty, so this plugin would never find any Action classes.
> I have a patch that has been verified to work on Weblogic 10 and 12.
