title: Java Reflection not working on my system - working for team members
body: <p>I am working on a team project in Java. One requirement is that we dynamically populate a drop-down menu of all classes that implement a certain interface. New classes can be added after compile time. To accomplish this we are using reflection.</p>
  
  <p>Problem: All of the drop-down menus are blank on my system. I cannot for the life of me figure out why they are not populating. All other 5 team members have it working on their system. </p>
  
  <p>Things I tired that didn't work:</p>
  
  <p>1) Installing most recent eclipse (galileo) because rest team was using it<br>
  2) Re-install most recent java release (jdk1.6.0-17 and jre6)<br>
  3) Check PATH and JAVA_HOME variables</p>
  
  <p>Any thoughts as to what else I can try or if something I did should have solved it and didn't? It is driving me crazy.</p>
  
  <p>Edit:
  I should have been clearer that we are developing in a team. We are using SVN for version control and we are all running the exact same source code. I even tried checking out a fresh copy of the entire tree from SVN, but I had the same issue with reflection on my system while it worked for teammates.</p>
  
  <p>The team created an executable jar and that ran on everyone's system fine except for mine. Everything worked for me except the reflection bit.</p>
