ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiInvocationHand ler when ex

[Reuven.Zaslanski]

I start rmiregistry.exe on required port and execute code below. However, exception is thrown. I use cglib and, I guess, this is somehow related to classloaders.
When the same code is executed without rmiregistry started manually, everything works fine.

Any ideas? Thanks.

	@Bean
	public RmiServiceExporter serviceExporter() throws Exception {
		Registry registry = java.rmi.registry.LocateRegistry.getRegistry(MainRMIService.RMI_PORT);
		
		RmiServiceExporter se = new RmiServiceExporter();
		se.setServiceName("QuoteService");
		se.setService(quoteService());
		se.setServiceInterface(QuoteService.class);
		se.setRegistry(registry);
		se.afterPropertiesSet();
		RmiInvocationHandler.class.getCanonicalName();
		se.setBeanClassLoader(Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader());
		
		return se;
	}

Was there a resolution to this? I'm coming upon the same problem and I can't find any references to fixes in either the documentation or via Google.
