Setting the property "com.arjuna.common.util.propertyservice.pluginclassname" has no effect .

In PropertyManagerImpl, line 357:

PropertyManagerIOPlugin plugin = (PropertyManagerIOPlugin)Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().loadClass(pluginClassname).newInstance();

Should propably read:

PropertyManagerIOPlugin plugin = (PropertyManagerIOPlugin)Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().loadClass(classname).newInstance();
