Description Michael Gorovoy CLA 2011-08-03 15:25:45 EDT 
Originally created as http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JETTY-1384 by Nick Nygaard (jetty@nndata.net)

Classloader for applet cannot find main class, if any library is pack200 packed (pack.gz) and applet requests server for pack200 files:

<html>...<applet...>
<param name="java_arguments" value="-Djnlp.packEnabled=true" />
</applet></html>

Even if only a dependency library is packed with pack200, the main class cannot be found.

Is content encoding correct when client receives packed jars: content-encoding=pack200-gzip?

The code works in another Java container.
