ClassNotFoundException while trying to use an authentication provider provided by a protocol handler

[emmanuelGuiton]

Hi,

I am trying to set up an authentication provider that is provided by a third party protocol handler (StreamNative AMQP on Pulsar). I can successfully set up the protocol handler but I can't figure out how to use the AMQP authentication provider. It always ends in a ClassNotFoundException: io.streamnative.pulsar.handlers.amqp.authentication.AuthenticationProviderBasic though the class is present in the unpacked NAR archive. So I am wondering if there is a bug in Pulsar because the classloader ignores a few classes from the protocol handler or if I am simply doing something wrong ... but I can't figure what.

Any help ?

I already reported the issue as a bug here streamnative/aop#864

Let's leave the third party plugin questions in their own repo.

Well : the point of my question was to understand if the issue came from Pulsar ...
