[jboss-user] [Beginners Corner] - Inserting custom classloader to delegation chain?

Hello. I'm trying to define a custom classloader to create certain classes at runtime. My classloader itself is just deriving from ClassLoadder and overriding the findClass with something like | @Override | protected Class<?> findClass(String className) throws ClassNotFoundException { | ClassLoader parentLoader = this.getClass().getClassLoader(); | if(className.equals("classToBeCreatedAtRuntime")){ | Class c = createClass(className); | return c; | }else{ | return Class.forName(className, true, parentLoader); | } | } | What I want from my classloader is to create and load class at runtime if needed or just delegate the responsibility to parent class loader. The main problem I face is to "push" my custom loader into the delegation chain. I've tried to set it with Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader but I'm getting classcast exceptions, so this doesn't seems like a right way. Am I missing something? How this can be achieved? Thanks a lot. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4074477#... Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&a...
