URLClassLoader
public class URLClassLoader extends SecureClassLoader (Code)
This class loader is used to load classes and resources from a search path of URLs referring to both JAR files and directories. Any URL that ends with a '/' is assumed to refer to a directory. Otherwise, the URL is assumed to refer to a JAR file which will be opened as needed.

The AccessControlContext of the thread that created the instance of URLClassLoader will be used when subsequently loading classes and resources.

The classes that are loaded are by default granted permission only to access the URLs specified when the URLClassLoader was created.

Constructor Detail
URLClassLoader
public URLClassLoader(URL[] urls, ClassLoader parent)(Code)
Constructs a new URLClassLoader for the given URLs. The URLs will be searched in the order specified for classes and resources after first searching in the specified parent class loader. Any URL that ends with a '/' is assumed to refer to a directory. Otherwise, the URL is assumed to refer to a JAR file which will be downloaded and opened as needed.

If there is a security manager, this method first calls the security manager's checkCreateClassLoader method to ensure creation of a class loader is allowed.
Parameters:
  urls - the URLs from which to load classes and resources
Parameters:
  parent - the parent class loader for delegation
exception:
  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkCreateClassLoader method doesn't allow creation of a class loader.
See Also:   SecurityManager.checkCreateClassLoader




URLClassLoader
public URLClassLoader(URL[] urls)(Code)
Constructs a new URLClassLoader for the specified URLs using the default delegation parent ClassLoader. The URLs will be searched in the order specified for classes and resources after first searching in the parent class loader. Any URL that ends with a '/' is assumed to refer to a directory. Otherwise, the URL is assumed to refer to a JAR file which will be downloaded and opened as needed.

If there is a security manager, this method first calls the security manager's checkCreateClassLoader method to ensure creation of a class loader is allowed.
Parameters:
  urls - the URLs from which to load classes and resources
exception:
  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkCreateClassLoader method doesn't allow creation of a class loader.
See Also:   SecurityManager.checkCreateClassLoader




URLClassLoader
public URLClassLoader(URL[] urls, ClassLoader parent, URLStreamHandlerFactory factory)(Code)
Constructs a new URLClassLoader for the specified URLs, parent class loader, and URLStreamHandlerFactory. The parent argument will be used as the parent class loader for delegation. The factory argument will be used as the stream handler factory to obtain protocol handlers when creating new jar URLs.

If there is a security manager, this method first calls the security manager's checkCreateClassLoader method to ensure creation of a class loader is allowed.
Parameters:
  urls - the URLs from which to load classes and resources
Parameters:
  parent - the parent class loader for delegation
Parameters:
  factory - the URLStreamHandlerFactory to use when creating URLs
exception:
  SecurityException - if a security manager exists and its checkCreateClassLoader method doesn't allow creation of a class loader.
See Also:   SecurityManager.checkCreateClassLoader





Method Detail
addURL
protected void addURL(URL url)(Code)
Appends the specified URL to the list of URLs to search for classes and resources.

If the URL specified is null or is already in the list of URLs, then invoking this method has no effect.
Parameters:
  url - the URL to be added to the search path of URLs




definePackage
protected Package definePackage(String name, Manifest man, URL url) throws IllegalArgumentException(Code)
Defines a new package by name in this ClassLoader. The attributes contained in the specified Manifest will be used to obtain package version and sealing information. For sealed packages, the additional URL specifies the code source URL from which the package was loaded.
Parameters:
  name - the package name
Parameters:
  man - the Manifest containing package version and sealinginformation
Parameters:
  url - the code source url for the package, or null if none
exception:
  IllegalArgumentException - if the package name duplicatesan existing package either in this class loader or oneof its ancestors the newly defined Package object



findClass
protected Class findClass(String name) throws ClassNotFoundException(Code)
Finds and loads the class with the specified name from the URL search path. Any URLs referring to JAR files are loaded and opened as needed until the class is found.
Parameters:
  name - the name of the class the resulting class
exception:
  ClassNotFoundException - if the class could not be found



findResource
public URL findResource(String name)(Code)
Finds the resource with the specified name on the URL search path.
Parameters:
  name - the name of the resource a URL for the resource, or null if the resource could not be found.



findResources
public Enumeration<URL> findResources(String name) throws IOException(Code)
Returns an Enumeration of URLs representing all of the resources on the URL search path having the specified name.
Parameters:
  name - the resource name
exception:
  IOException - if an I/O exception occurs an Enumeration of URLs



getPermissions
protected PermissionCollection getPermissions(CodeSource codesource)(Code)
Returns the permissions for the given codesource object. The implementation of this method first calls super.getPermissions and then adds permissions based on the URL of the codesource.

If the protocol of this URL is "jar", then the permission granted is based on the permission that is required by the URL of the Jar file.

If the protocol is "file" and there is an authority component, then permission to connect to and accept connections from that authority may be granted. If the protocol is "file" and the path specifies a file, then permission to read that file is granted. If protocol is "file" and the path is a directory, permission is granted to read all files and (recursively) all files and subdirectories contained in that directory.

If the protocol is not "file", then permission to connect to and accept connections from the URL's host is granted.
Parameters:
  codesource - the codesource the permissions granted to the codesource




getURLs
public URL[] getURLs()(Code)
Returns the search path of URLs for loading classes and resources. This includes the original list of URLs specified to the constructor, along with any URLs subsequently appended by the addURL() method. the search path of URLs for loading classes and resources.



newInstance
public static URLClassLoader newInstance(URL[] urls, ClassLoader parent)(Code)
Creates a new instance of URLClassLoader for the specified URLs and parent class loader. If a security manager is installed, the loadClass method of the URLClassLoader returned by this method will invoke the SecurityManager.checkPackageAccess method before loading the class.
Parameters:
  urls - the URLs to search for classes and resources
Parameters:
  parent - the parent class loader for delegation the resulting class loader



newInstance
public static URLClassLoader newInstance(URL[] urls)(Code)
Creates a new instance of URLClassLoader for the specified URLs and default parent class loader. If a security manager is installed, the loadClass method of the URLClassLoader returned by this method will invoke the SecurityManager.checkPackageAccess before loading the class.
Parameters:
  urls - the URLs to search for classes and resources the resulting class loader
