could anyone shed some light.

note:(when i copy all 90 jars from jboss-5.0.1.GA\client into my client lib, my APPLICATION WORKING. but i don know what are the remaining jars exactly needed.) :(

Answer 1

The org.jboss.logging API classes are in jboss-logging-spi.jar. You'll probably also need either jboss-logging-jdk.jar or jboss-logging-log4j.jar.

In JBoss 4, the jbossall-client.jar contained a copy of every class that client applications might need. As of v5, though, it contains only a manifest file that refers to the other JARs, and so simply including jbossall-client.jar is no longer enough, you need to include the others as well.
