Classloader Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader() no longer inspects WEB-INF/lib

Web applications on JBoss AS 6 and earlier could use the class loader to find and load a properties file stored in WEB/lib

Jboss 7 seems to not find the properties file.

Until now I believed that this folder was considered to be part of the classpath for a webapp. Perhaps it is not ?

I will attach a test eclipse project and a war file either to this bug report or to the forum posting.
