Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-13702:
---------------------------------------------

First off - its always a super big codesmell if we need to create custom urlclassloaders but I know Forge2 just can't work without it :(

secondly, yes exploded format would probably avoid this issue of constant unzipping but run the risk of code actually writing to this destination. But as long as you dont do then using exploded bundles are an option yes.

But that will make the default install of jbt/jbds slower since it will need to unzip these things *always*, not only when forge needs it.

are you sure it will create a new temp unzip even if the bundle has not changed? i.e. isn't this only happening because you are always updating the bundle ?

> In Forge 1, it is possible to configure external Forge runtimes. In Forge 2 it would be nice to allow configuration of that, but also avoid the need to unzip the files in the startup.
