[jboss-dev-forums] [JBoss Microcontainer Development] - Re: New features in classloading

[adrian@jboss.org]

I'm aware of a few other missing features in the classloading which I haven't yet
raised JIRA issues for, although JIRA already exist for some.

1) Allow optional imports on wildcards
2) Allow dynamic imports on wildcards
3) Permission checks to use Capabilities
4) Allow fragments - i.e. additions to the "classpath" of a classloader
5) Extension bundles - i.e. hot deployment (but not undeployment) into the "bootstrap classpath"
6) Circular dependencies
7) Split packages

I think (4) would be better implemented in the deployers by allowing one deployment
to dynamically become a subdeployment of another one. But this still requires
a mechanism to augment the classpath roots in the VFSClassLoaderPolicy.
