Message: [QUOTE="Josip Almasi, post: 5157658"] Oh, but there's more. Class.equals() will fail on classes loaded by different classloaders, as will Object.equals(). That is, after you extend URLClassLoader as Arne said:) Then, you can't unload a class just like that, as class loader keeps references to all loaded classes. You need to unload that ClassLoader too. That is, if you wish to reload plugins without jvm restart. With custom URLClassLoader, watch carefully not to break specified delegation model. OK then you wish only to customize application classloader. Note that in JEE containers, classloaders have another important function - context isolation. Regards... [/QUOTE]
